This document provides information about planting Yoshino cherry trees and proper planting techniques. It discusses the root flare and where it is located. It also describes different types of tree plantings such as bare root, balled and burlapped, and containerized. The document warns that containerized or pot bound trees may have roots that circle the container and stunt growth. It recommends cutting roots on pot bound trees. Staking is also addressed, noting it is usually unnecessary but may be needed for trees with shallow roots, and slack should be left on stakes.
