How To Care For Red Apple Ground Cover

Step 1

Dig a planting hole double the diameter and 1 1/2 times the depth of the pot the red apple ground cover was purchased in.

Step 2

Remove half of the loosened soil and replace it with organic compost. Mix the remaining garden soil and compost well.

Step 3

Place the roots of the plant into the prepared planting hole. Return the loosened soil and water until it is evenly moist to the roots.

Step 4

Check the soil often and water only when the surface feels completely dry.

Step 5

Pull up wayward plants when they are noticed, as red apple ground cover invades other areas of the garden quickly if not kept under control.
