How to I care for my new (& newly planted) purple flowering plum tree?

Just planted it about two weeks ago. Live in Missouri.

How to I care for my new (%26amp; newly planted) purple flowering plum tree?
Make sure it never dries out the first few years. Don't over water just deep watering when it needs it. Mulch it with well rotted manures and organic matter (hay). Fertilize annually, and you should have a beautiful tree in no time. They are hardy and no problem to grow.
Reply:Water it weekly and protect it from deer who could rut on it. They will rub their antlers on the trunk and kill the tree. I lost a beautiful crabbapple that way. Wrap a mesh loosely around the trunk.
