When to plant?

josip · 2022-02-11 16:26:41

I need to move a 10yo camelia and plant in its place a 3/4yo potted apple tree. Can I do that now or should I wait a bit longer? We don't get hard frosts here.

Sooner the better, things are beginning to stir, you would need to move anything within the next 4 weeks. The potted plant can go in anytime.
