garden tee tree

Post by lakepipes »

Hi Guys,

Could I get some advice please ?

I have a 20+ year old tea tree in my yard that was cut down during a clean up session about 9 months ago.
It was cut off about a foot from ground level and "Was" going to be ripped out, but it has now started to shoot all over and I'm thinking of developing it further.

Two questions if I may:
1. When would be the best time to dig it up and move it to a poly box?
2. Feeding - what, when and how often?

Any help would be appreciated.
Mike
