Question Can Maple trees be planted the first of July
Answer Not very successfully. The heat will cause much damage or death. The best time is not the summer months. Deciduous plants may be moved in the spring as soon as the frost is out of the ground, up until the time when new foliage is partly unfurled. In the fall, they may be planted once the leaves start to turn color up until the ground freezes.
