Are they in the ground already? How old? Got a picture? – Graham Chiu Mar 7 '16 at 0:40

Mulch around the tree frequently, and pull out any small plants growing at the base of it.
Only water if soil is dry, because overwatering is a major killer.
Only prune dead or diseased branches.
To protect it from animals a plywood sunscreen can also protect it from insects.
However if you live with large animals like deers, you may need a plastic tube or chicken wire fence to protect it.

Can you expand on your answer? Link only answers don't add as much value to the site as a written answer. – kevinsky♦ Mar 31 '16 at 9:49
