But not to worry; as a property owner, all you need to be familiar with are the basics. As mentioned, transplanting a tree at the right time of year is one of those fundamentals. The general focus for transplanting a tree at the right time of year is dormancy. For this reason, late winter and early spring are the perfect times to get the job done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:32px\"><strong>Transplant Trees in Fall, Late Winter or Early Spring While Still Dormant<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2766 <strong>Transplanting in Fall \u2013<\/strong> Transplant your tree in the fall, but only after all the leaves have dropped for the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2766 <strong>Transplanting in Spring \u2013<\/strong> Transplanting your tree in spring is safe, but be sure to do so before they begin to show new bud formation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2766 <strong>Transplanting in Winter \u2013<\/strong> Transplanting trees in winter is possible, so long as the ground is not too frozen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Post-Transplanting Tree Care<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Transplanting a tree on your property during the right time of the year is just the beginning. You need to also provide post-care for your transplanted trees and shrubs. Focus on watering, including a deep water every 2 weeks or so. Also be sure to consider mulching and tree staking, but avoid fertilizing. Wait at least one year before fertilizing a tree that was transplanted to a new location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rely on Indianapolis Tree Care You Can Trust<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Call Complete Tree Care at 317-783-2518<\/strong> for prompt and professional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acompletetreecare.com\/\">Indianapolis tree service<\/a> you can trust.
