I finally planted my Dypsis Lepto and Dypsis Carlsmithii in ground after a while yesterday, Now the building of Granny Flat is finished and landscape is done,

I dog the ground as deep and wide as could and fill with good quality compost and soil and on top natural mulch and on top of that small wood chips mulch…

It was a bit late but hopefully not too late…

 

I also wanted to separate the Two Lepto but they’ve been tangled badly so I didn’t take the risk and plant them as they were …

Wish me the luck :) and please let me have your suggestions on watering, fertilizing and anything else ...they are under full sun by the way ...( they were in the same position in bags for months)

Mohsen - for these keep them well watered in the warmer months between November and April, you pretty much can't overdo it especially while they are establishing and expanding the root ball. I'd ease off in May/June and let natural rainfall do the job in winter and early spring. Any additional irrigation during the cooler months might make them more susceptible to rot.

Thanks everyone

I should confess among all I planted in ground, only I am 100% happy with preparation, location and soil...I used bags of high quality compost and garden soil and mulch and dug as deep and as wide as I could, the edging though is the landscaper job, I just told them that dont make it small specially for the Carlsmithii as it might get huge girth ( hopefully) and they mad them 1mX1m for both :)
