Getting Ready to Plant Trees

[Stanton]

Needed some holes for a few saplings I intend to transplant around the yard. Using Walter (‘48 Cub) with a 12” auger on the Grosshart Posthole digger works nice.

Plant them low, they won't grow.
Plant them high, they'll reach the sky.

Planting this fall or next spring?

I'm planning on planting trees next spring. I have to use the backhoe to dig a deep wide hole in the combination soil and gravel. Pick out the big rocks. Refill the hole with a mixture of the remaining soil and top soil.
