When is the best time of the year to plant oak trees?

Marianne's Response

Trees that are sold in containers from a nursery can be planted any time the ground is not frozen or the heat is not over 80 degrees for the best transition.  This means spring and fall are the two best seasons. There are always exceptions however and as long as the newly planted tree does not dry out and has good drainage you should not have  trouble with planting. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
