Timing

• Trench around the plant 6-12 months before moving
• Trench around the drip zone of the tree
• Dig to the depth of the roots (depending on topsoil depth)
• Backfill the trench with a friable soil mix. A mix of soil, soil conditioner, compost and sand.
• Leave the plant to recover before moving
• New feeder roots will establish in the soil mix
• Either in late autumn or winter, transplant the tree.
