I'm guessing it's the wrong time of year to transplant trees, right? I have an unwanted Golden Rain Tree (I might actually have 2) and an unwanted Red bud in my "tree nursery". I grew them from starts. They are 3 years old. I'd hate to dig them up and have them die, though. I also have an unwanted evergreen that the biggest kid planted... darn thing is in a pot and huge. I'm trying to explain to the oldest DS that we have to let it go somewhere that it can be planted before it dies in the pot. I don't want it in my yard. It's "his" tree and he doesn't want to let it go. The thing is taller than my fence.
The Golden Rain Tree(s) and Red bud came from the Arbor Day foundation.
In the spring, if anyone is interested in any of those, let me know.
This is an okay time of the year to transplant a tree. As long as you put them in a pot, and leave them outdoors, they should be fine. It's going to be cold enough, that the sap shouldn't be running in the trees. I would love one of the golden chains. The Red bud is interesting, but I don't have room for it.
