Planting:  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen selecting a spot for your Cherokee Princess, find a location that offers full to partial sun and has well-draining and slightly acidic soil.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDig your hole three times the width of the size of the root ball and slightly deeper. Loosen the soil, in and around the hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your fingers to separate the roots of your Cherokee Princess Dogwood and gently position downward in the hole. Hold the tree straight as you begin to backfill the site. Apply water to settle the soil and remove any air pockets that may have formed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProtect the roots in the cold of winter by applying a thick layer of pine needles, bark, or wood mulch. To avoid fungus and rot, keep the mulch about 2 inches from the trunk. Mulching will also help with keeping the soil moist as well as deter weeds and grasses from growing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2.

Watering during the winter is rarely necessary. When you water, give it a good, deep soaking to ensure it penetrates down to the deepest roots.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3. Fertilizing:  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLittle or no fertilizer is needed during the first growing season. Too much fertilizer when the tree is young can stunt root growth and possibly injure the tree.
