In most cases, you can transplant a
tree successfully, at any time, if you follow the instructions for planting a
tree. The most important thing is to dig out enough roots, but this process is
difficult with a large tree. When you dig out the tree, leave a
ball of earth around its roots. This ball of earth should measure about a foot
wide for every inch of the tree trunk's diameter. Dig deep enough to avoid
cutting off too many taproots. It is wise to call in a
professional tree expert to transplant a tree more than a few inches in trunk
diameter.
