Sorry that i posted this already in the wrong place. Hi all, The 3 tree's that i have in pots still have green leaves on them. It's gotten below freezing a couple of night but the days have been between 35 and 65. Is it too late to think about transplanting two peach tree's and one fig? Any thoughts about bringing the fig into the house? It's dropped all of it's leaves already. If transplanting is still advised are there any pointers that might help them survive such a late transplant? Thanks |

It is still a good time to plant out well rooted shrubs and trees in North Carolina. About how old are these plants and were they grown from cuttings within the last year? If they were, I'd be more cautious with them. But if these are well established, I'd say go ahead. |

Hey Ga, Thanks for answering; it looks like i may have a few answers in the other post spot but it could be that they are answers to the original poster. None were from cuttings. These were the first tree's( an 8 foot peach tree with blossoms ) got planted in the perfect spot in my back yard in a nice big hole that i prepared with potting soil because much like GA what i found about 6 inches down was red clay. The tree was in the ground about a month when i noticed it was broken in half pulled down by a dear. ( i love that story on here about the guy who thought he could rope one ) The second tree was 10' peach that i had moved around the yard a couple of times trying to find the right spot to plant it. But after the dear episode i transplanted both a had a deck garden which remained critter free. The third tree is a fig and i thought about bring that one inside since i heard they do well as house plants? Any advice is much appreciated! |
