care of the soul

how do you create the ph of your soul

well, you need to dig deep,
twice the height of the root ball

leave an inch or so halo
around the edge

and don't completely
bury the root ball

you want an even
balance of ph

poor water into the hole
and let soul drink it up

gently place your soul
into the ground

fertilize as necessary
water an inch deep once a week

souls can be finicky
they are sensitive to cold

they like a lot of light
but not too much heat

they can use pruning
time to time

fertilizing
can stimulate growth

but winters
are dangerous

with care, and
constant attention

it is well worth the wait
and work for healthy blossoms
