Here are the best practices of planting
clear away mulch from a space 2-3x the size of the pot
add a scoop of compost to the center of the cleared area
dig out a shovel full of earth and turn upside down into the hole
use your shovel to shop up the earth and incorporate the compost
remove enough loosened soil to place the new plant
pull apart the roots so the grow into the surrounding soil
planting depth should be the same as the depth of the potted plant
