How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. Check each young street tree for stake ties, mulch ring, and watering bag condition.
2. Loosen or replace any tie that is girdling the trunk.
3. Refresh the mulch ring to a proper depth without touching the trunk.
4. Water each tree deeply if the watering bag is empty.
5. Photograph each tree and log its condition.

What counts as done

• before photo
• after photo
• GPS location tag
• written condition log per tree

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Tree Planting and Establishment. Planting a tree properly is a codified craft, and the arborists' standards are blunt about why: most young trees that die were killed at planting, by a hole dug too deep, a root ball left bound, a first summer without water. Mastery looks like trees you planted years ago still standing, which is the only measure arborists accept. The craft lives in exactly the steps this packet asks for: the wide shallow hole, the freed roots, the mulch kept off the trunk, the watering that follows. Plant one tree correctly and you know something real.
