Backfilling the Planting Hole
The main reason for digging a wide planting hole is so we have plenty of soil that can be “fluffed up” or turned and aerated for backfilling around the root system or root ball.
Where formerly a variety of organic materials were added to the backfill soil, Crabapple LandscapExperts follow current agricultural research recommendations for best practices and simply disturb an area two to three times the diameter of the root ball in width to produce a zone of well-aerated native soil that plant roots readily grow into in the month or two following planting.
