Key insights about video Gardening with Ken - How to Plant a Japanese Maple

🌳 Fall is the best time to plant Japanese maples because it allows them to establish before spring.

💪 Japanese maples come in different colors and shapes, ranging from three feet tall to 25 feet tall.

🌱 When planting a tree, it's best to take it out of the container and place it in a hole double the size of its diameter.

💦 Building a dam around the tree while filling it with water helps hydrate the tree and get rid of air pockets in the root zone.

🍃 After planting, it's important to make sure the soil is packed in well and level.

📢 In October, Bernie's Nursery offers a 25% discount on all Japanese maples, along with pumpkins, fall mums, and a great gift shop.

🎄 Customers are also invited to take a preview of what they're doing in the Christmas gift shop.
