The value of coniferous trees in decorative qualities that do not change depending on the time of year. In order for the evergreen plantations to feel good, they need to be planted according to all the rules.
Instruction manual
1
Most of all, large, adult specimens of conifers react most painfully to transplantation. Persistent species can be considered spruce, fir and western thuja, and the most moody - pine and cedar. The best survival rate in a new place in large coniferous trees transplanted in the winter. This is due to the fact that the tree is at rest, and damage to the root coma does not occur.

Each plant, regardless of species and size, suffers extreme stress at the time of transplantation. Since the vital functions of the root system and the crown are interconnected, careful care is of particular importance for speedy adaptation. In the roots of the tree, hormones are synthesized that affect the growth and activity of the root system, and therefore the whole tree. Even with the most careful and careful transplantation, a significant part of young and active roots is lost. Therefore, the water balance of the plant is disturbed, the amount of nutrients absorbed by it decreases, and the functions of biosynthesis are weakened. In order for the necessary substances to enter the crown of the tree in the right amount, after transplantation it is recommended to process with synthetic analogues of plant hormones.

The auxin group is a growth regulator and is intended to restore the root system as soon as possible. The cytokinin and giberbilin groups stimulate the development of needles and new branches, in general, ensuring the adaptation of the terrestrial part. In nature, the underground and aboveground parts grow, alternating, therefore, you need to process the roots and crown in turn.

Large-sized conifers should be watered the first 2-3 years after transplanting regularly and plentifully. Young shoots adapt faster, therefore, closely monitoring the watering of young animals will take a maximum of a year. For more efficient watering, a small hole with raised edges is arranged around each tree. To protect evergreens from the sunburn that often overtakes them in the summer, it is advisable to shade them, especially the first year after transplantation. On especially hot and sunny days, in addition to shading, it will be useful to arrange sprinkling of the crown for conifers.
5
In the first years after transplantation, all plants, and conifers and large-sized plants, are especially prone to attack by pests and infection with fungal infections. Insecticides and fungicides should be used immediately after transplantation of conifers, to prevent unpleasant consequences. It is better to use drugs of wide action. Observing all the conditions, you can transplant a coniferous tree and provide it with quick survival in a new place.
