Planting is best done between October and April
Container-grown plants can be planted any time of the year. Container-grown plants have an advantage when planted in autumn or winter because the cooler weather means they don’t have to be watered as frequently. The soil tends to retain moisture for longer in cooler months, and since plants aren’t actively growing as fast in these seasons, they need less water overall.
In addition to less watering, planting in the autumn or winter also gives the roots time to establish before the more intense growing period of spring
Relocating. Trees and shrubs
Any tree or shrub will experience some stress when uprooted, but the impact of transplanting or relocating can be minimized with sound knowledge and good technique. Generally, younger plants and trees are more likely to survive being relocated compared to older more established trees and plants. Here at Absolute Tree care and Gardens we can Advise, guide, plant and relocate (where possible and advisable) bulbs, shrubs, young and mature trees.
