D.G. Planting

Planting directly into D.G. allows for many color contrast opportunities.  Soil beneath is ammended properly and covered with filter fabric.  Cut an X into the fabric and plant into soil allowing rootball to remain 3" above fabric.  Lay decomposed granite and compact, making sure to keep the D.G. off the base of the plant (to prevent root rot).  Any drip irrigation needs to be pinned UNDERNEATH the fabric
