Bark Chips And Planting
Hi Guys,
Wanted some advice. Im new to the forum. I decided to grow some rose trees in containers. A work colleague told me it would be a good idea to place some bark chips at the bottom of the container, followed by covering of soil upto a third and then the transfer of the rose tree followed by a further covering with soil over the base of the stem of the rose tree.. My question is wether the bottom layer being some bark chips is a good idea or not?? Many thanks in advance.. |

Bark Chips And Planting
bark chips are OK, gravel works better as the chips will decompose
over time. The bottom layer is more for drainage than anything else. On Tue, 13 Aug 2013 00:31:32 +0200, Doctor1983 wrote: Hi Guys, Wanted some advice. Im new to the forum.
