We purchased a replacement tree for our Ash after the borers killed it. Despite our best efforts the replacement tree didn’t survive the winter. Bentley Ridge gave us a credit and planted that tree. Very satisfied with the process and our new tree is growing nicely.

What a great group! Not only very knowledgeable at the point of sale, answered all my follow up questions around care, watering and winter prep months after the sale. Thank you for going the extra mile and return emails. Best tree nursery I ever worked with!
Frequently Asked Questions About Bentley Ridge Tree Farm
I have never planted a tree before, do you think this is something I can handle?
Generally, yes. While trees have various factors to consider, our comprehensive planting guide is designed to address most questions that arise during the planting process, making it accessible for beginners.
How much should I be watering my plants?
The watering needs of plants depend on numerous factors. For detailed information on proper watering techniques and plant-specific requirements, we recommend consulting our watering guide.
What is the root flare of a tree?
The root flare, also known as the root collar, is the area where the tree's trunk transitions from trunk and bark tissues to root system tissues. It's located at the base of the tree.
How should I store my tree if I cannot plant it right away?
If immediate planting isn't possible, place the tree in a shaded area and maintain moisture in the root ball. During warmer weather, you may need to water the root ball multiple times daily. For containerized plants, water until you observe drainage from the container's base.
Can I spray round up beneath my trees/ shrubs?
Yes, you can use roundup under trees and shrubs. However, it's crucial to prevent the chemical from contacting the leaves. When spraying near perennials or small shrubs, consider using a protective shield to avoid accidental exposure.
Do I have (whatever problem) with my tree?
At Bentley Ridge, we're happy to examine specific plant issues. However, some problems may require an on-site evaluation by a certified arborist for accurate diagnosis and treatment recommendations.
