• Autumn (October-November): Ideal for most deciduous trees, allowing root establishment before summer
• Winter (December-February): Good for dormant bare-root trees when ground isn’t frozen
• Early Spring (March-April): Excellent for many species before the stress of summer heat
• Container-Grown Trees: Can be planted almost any time with proper care, but avoid extremely hot periods

Our experts will advise on the optimal planting time for your specific trees and situation.
