Burlap Left on Weeping Cherry Root Ball: Replant Immediately

The Problem

Burlap (especially treated) wicks moisture away from roots and impedes root expansion. Browning leaves = drought stress despite watering.

Fix

  1. Dig up tree.
  2. Remove all burlap, twine, wire.
  3. Replant in hole 2× root ball width.
  4. Mulch 3 inches, water 1 inch every other day for 2 weeks, then every 3rd day.
