Q.
I planted a tree in small container in October of 2014. The tree is now 5 feet
high growing well but needs water daily. Can it be presently moved to a larger
container or placed in the ground or do I wait until Fall?
Wait until temperatures cool off, at least until mid-September or the first week in October. At that time you can either plant it in a larger container or put it in the ground.
A.
It is always a bad idea to plant from containers, either from container to
container or directly in the ground, during the hottest summer months. The
plant will struggle as it tries to reestablish itself, even for the best
gardeners.
