Planting An Avocado Orchard

After digging the hole, the planter removes the building-paper pot prior to putting the rootball in the hole.

Soil is filled in around the rootball to "set" the tree.

After the hole is filled with soil, the planter will tamp the soil with a wood stick or his feet to compact the soil around the rootball of the tree.

Soil is added around the tree from the surrounding area to build a water-holding basin.

After the basin is completed, a mulch is placed in the basin and a paper protector is placed around the tree.
