OLD MAN SALTBUSH – FULL PLANTING GUIDE![]()
Waterwize Nursery & Garden Design
18 Redding Road, Minnipa SA | 0419 668 352![]()
1. Site Preparation & Spacing![]()
• Weed Control: Clear or spray a 1-metre circle around each planting site. Weeds steal the moisture your new plants need.
• Hedge or Windbreak Spacing: Plant them 1 to 1.5 metres apart in a line.
• Livestock Forage Spacing: Plant rows 2.5 to 3 metres apart, with plants spaced 1.5 to 2 metres apart within the row.![]()
2. Digging the Hole![]()
• Dig your hole twice as wide as the tube pot, and just a bit deeper.
• If your soil is heavy clay, scratch the inside walls of the hole with your spade so the roots can break through easily.![]()
3. Planting the Tube![]()
• Soak First: Dunk the plastic tube into a bucket of water until bubbles stop before taking the plant out.
• Unpotting: Gently squeeze the sides of the tube and slide the plant out. Don't yank it by the stem.
• Depth: Plant it so the top of the tube soil sits level with or slightly below the ground. Make a small dirt dish around the base to catch future rain.
• Fill: Pack the loose soil back around the plant and press down gently with your hands to get rid of air pockets.![]()
4. Watering & Establishment![]()
• Give each plant 2 to 5 litres of water immediately after planting to settle the soil.
• Spring Advantage: Planting right now uses the excellent spring subsoil moisture, giving roots a massive head start before summer.
• First Summer: Once established, Saltbush is incredibly drought-hardy. However, give them a good deep drink every 2–3 weeks during their very first summer if it gets exceptionally dry.![]()
5. Protection & Pruning![]()
• Guards: Use tree guards if rabbits, hares, or roos are active on your block.
• Pruning: After the first year, cut or lightly graze the tops. This forces the plant to bush out from the bottom, making a much thicker hedge or more feed.
