I will show you how to transplant an adult tree to a new location. If you need to move a tree to a new location, then transplanting an adult tree to a new location is always relevant. An adult apple tree has been growing in a new place for about 5 years and bears fruit.
Based on personal experience, I can say that the success of planting a fruit tree largely depends on the correct timing for this difficult procedure. It is better to determine the date based on specific weather conditions and the experience of past years.
I carry out autumn tree replanting after the third sustained frost, but not earlier than October 20. You can replant trees throughout November, regardless of the first temporary snow. I had to do this work in December as well.
I replant mature fruit-bearing trees only as a last resort. First, of course, you need to dig them up; five-year-old specimens are not difficult to deal with. Digging up a tree older than 5–8 years is much more difficult. At this age, trees have a developed root system, and a significant amount of excavation work must be done to preserve most of the roots.
Immediately before replanting, I prune the tree’s crown to restore some balance with the root system, which will decrease in size. And it’s more convenient to move such a tree. If transplanted successfully, the tree restores its crown in 2–3 years.
Before I start digging, I mark a trench around the tree. Its diameter depends on the size of the plant (1.5 meters or a little more), the width is about one and a half spade bayonets, the depth is at least two spade bayonets. This trench is intended to mark the root system of the tree.
Then, according to the markings, I begin to dig a trench, placing the blade of the shovel along the radius towards the center. I carefully trim the ends of the roots extending from the tree (along the outer contour of the trench) with pruning shears.
I water the transplanted tree throughout the next summer and until late autumn in hot windy weather (once every 10 days), and I sprinkle it somewhat more often. Mature trees transplanted using the described technology take root well.
