I have a 6-7 year old all winter hangover about 10’ tall I want to move. It is to close to a native tree. I originally thought the angle would give it enough sun but I am not happy with where it is at. Of coarse it is one of my best looking trees. The original hole was dug with a back hoe so it should be rock free digging to get it out. Would you risk it?

If it’s one of your best trees what makes you not happy?

I'd cut down the tree shading it. If I was going to move the apple tree, I'd probably rent a tree spade.

I never should have put the tree there. I had two trees left and no room for them so I stuck them there. A dead elm took out the other one last year. Now I have lots of room but tree is probably to big to move. Next Saturday will be last chance, I will see how much rain is forecasted for following week. |
