Dig a wide, rough sided hole exactly the same depth as theheight of the ball, especially at the surface of the ground. Thesides of the hole should be rough and jagged, never slick orglazed.H. Percolation Test: Fill the hole with water. If the water level doesnot percolate within 24 hours, the tree needs to move to anotherlocation or have drainage added.
