Re: [NAFEX] transplanting young apple trees

I am in Minnesota and November is a recommended time to transplant dormant trees.

Congratulations on your grafting success! Grafting is a great skill to
master.

I commonly plant fruit trees in November in central NC. They will
appreciate a generous topping of mulch after you set them in place. Be
sure and protect from deer, and set a protective vole/rabbit collar at
the base--winter is prime time for small vertebrate damage.
