After reading about autumn blaze maple trees on here, I did some research and ending up planting two in the corners of my back yard. We purchased some liquid N-P-K that Earl May recommended, mixed it with 5 gallons of water and poured it at the base of the tree. We did not put any water in the hole or on the roots. I had read differing thoughts on whether to water in the hole. Also reading different recommendations on how much and how often to water the trees. Any thoughts from experience of watering trees would be welcome.
