    The previous two answers are correct. Just put it in a flower pot for a few monthswith some dirt or plant it directly in the garden.. Just remember when you eventually place it in a permanent location you need to remember this tree can get 60-70 feet high in twenty years and 15- 20 feet wide so give it plenty of room.

    It can grow in just about any soil, just stick it in the ground and make sure the roots are covered.

    I would just go ahead and plant it in your yard in a sunny spot. Water daily until it is established.
