ABSTRACT:
The method of planting potted nursery plants includes providing a planting tool having a punch head corresponding to the shape of the potted plant to be planted and then inserting the punch head into the ground and displacing soil for forming a cavity having the shape of the punch head and potting soil of the potted plant. The potted plant is then inserted into the sized hole in the ground without the need of any filling soil around the plant. The planting tool includes a cross member having a handle extending from an upwardly extending arm and the punch head extending from the downwardly extending arm. A step member extends through oppositely extending horizontal arms and telescopically holds a measuring member. T shaped holders are provided on the handle for holding punch heads of different sizes and shapes.
