go for it!

go for it! it's the hot afternoon summer sun that'll getcha...and those actually like sun :)

Not the most ideal time but certainly doable. Just make sure the tree gets plenty of water. That will reduce the probability of transplant shock.

I agree - go for it. If it was dug with a ball of dirt early this spring and it is alive now, then it has already survived its original transplant shock. It would probably rather be in the ground now than sitting on a tree lot. If it is in a container then it has already survived the potting process. Just be careful in the hot weather - container plants can dry out very fast until they get some roots growing into your soil.

Thanks for all the advice and encouragement. I will, indeed, "go for it" - taking special care to keep the young tree watered during the hot summer months ahead. Fingers crossed, it will thrive.

Lots of water my friend. The sun will do the rest. Good luck.
