New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Gray
Incense of the day: Lilac Balled and burlapped trees should never be carried by the trunk but always by the ball. Dig the hole three times as wide as the root ball but no deeper than the top of the root ball. Remember to remove twine or wires. Soil should be compacted around the ball but not overly tight so that it prevents water from seeping through the peat moss, compost, and topsoil. Water the tree after planting and repeat this spell: Bless this tree I plant today, And for generations may it stay Always strong and growing tall, Providing beauty and shade for all. Water the tree once a week when there is no rain, and a bit more often during hot summer months, repeating the spell, substituting "water" for "plant" in the first line. |
