When is the best time to transplant trees and shrubs?
Late fall or winter is the best time to do your transplanting because most plant material is dormant and you will have a less likely chance of the plant going into shock. You also need to make sure you water the newly transplanted material before you fill the hole in with dirt. And every day for the next week, you should water the plant using a slow trickle to ensure that the roots get a thorough soaking.
