Tree Planting and Installation
Date:	2/17/2010
Event Title:	Tree Planting and Installation
Location:	Rutgers University- New Brunswick
Organized By:	Rutgers University Continuing Education
Sponsored By:	Rutgers University Continuing Education
Description:	Proper planting is far more than digging holes; it can literally determine life or death for a tree. You first must match the plant with the conditions of your site and then determine proper excavation depth and width. You also need to identify girdling roots and the location of trunk flares - then use suitable backfill to create good soil structure. You will learn how to take control of the process with detailed specifications to assist in evaluating, preserving and remediating trees on construction sites. Hands-on outdoor demonstrations will be provided if the weather cooperates.
