Planting & Care
1. Planting: Start by selecting a suitable location for your Pink Silk Floss Tree. It’s important to plan your planting so that it’s at least 15 feet from eaves and foot traffic. The Pink Silk thrives in full sun, 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day, and well-drained but moistened soil. Once you’ve chosen your location, dig a hole that’s two to three times the size of your tree’s root ball, place the tree, back fill your soil and water the area to settle your Pink Silk’s roots.2. Watering: Plan to water your Pink Silk Floss Tree about once a week until it gets established, with reduced bi-weekly watering in winter. If you’re not sure when to water, simply check your Pink Silk’s surrounding soil, down to about 2 or 3 inches. If the soil here is dry, it’s time to water. After the first few years, rainfall should suffice for irrigating your tree.
3. Fertilizing: Fertilize your Pink Silk Floss Tree with a well-balanced mix in spring and summer for the first few growing seasons.
