Roberta's Tip: Planting Depth


For garden bulbs and bare-root plants, dig holes that are 2–3 times the roots’ width and deep enough to accommodate them. This creates a solid foundation for transplants. The best time to dig is a day or two after it has rained while the soil is still moist, but not soggy. Use a trowel for small jobs and a shovel or auger for larger ones. Remove any rocks and stones, place the plant or bulb inside the hole, and pack soil in firmly. Watering should occur right away.
