Special thanks to my dad for taking care of the landscaping around the transplanted tree to help combat some erosion that was happening. Hopefully it can survive and thrive!
Maybe a couple times a week, tamp down -lightly- with your foot, or with the tamper from the shed, along the sod edges and a couple times in and around the center of the sod strips, especially along the sloped section, to make sure it remains in contact with the underlying soil surface.
Grass roots won't grow in open-air spaces, so you want to make sure both surfaces remain in close contact for a couple months until the new roots grow and take hold, binding both together.
Yes, thank you Greg!!! It looks great and I really hope it's able to survive - here's to that 40%! =)
