Planting Guide

  • Plant during Kenya's long rains (March-May) or short rains (October-December) for best results.
  • Dig holes 40cm x 40cm x 40cm, spacing trees according to intended use.
  • Mix topsoil with organic matter before planting.
  • Water thoroughly immediately after planting and regularly for the first dry season.
  • Apply mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
