Planting & Care Guide (Pot-Grown Trees)

Pot-grown trees can be planted year-round, avoiding periods of frost or extreme heat.

  • Water the tree well before planting

  • Dig a hole at least twice the width of the pot

  • Remove the pot and gently tease out roots if necessary

  • Plant so the top of the root ball sits level with the soil surface

  • Backfill, firm gently, and water thoroughly

  • Stake if required, especially in exposed locations

  • Mulch around the base (avoiding the trunk) to retain moisture and suppress weeds

  • Water regularly during the first growing season. Prune lightly in winter or early spring if required

With proper care, your Rhus typhina (Stag’s Horn Sumac) will reward you with dramatic foliage, stunning autumn colour, and years of ornamental interest.
