Planting Tips for South Meridian and
Nampa Area Customers

Neighbors in south Meridian and southwest Nampa share similar soil conditions. Early spring planting gives roots time to settle before heat arrives. The University of Idaho Extension says early spring and early fall are the best times to plant because roots have time to grow strong. South Meridian shares clay-loam soil with our Nampa growing fields.

Water new trees three times per week through the first summer. Stake tall trees for one year to stop wind damage near open fields. Discovery Park area customers often need right-sized trees for residential lots.
