moving plants question
« on: September 28, 2006, 05:58:57 AM »
I live in zone 5 to 6 and I want to move a few bushes.  A forsanthia, an athea and a burning bush.  My question is can I move them now or should I wait.  The temps here are ranging from 60-75 during the day and it 40-60 at night.

I do not know about your zone or climate but here, fall is an excellent time to move or plant.

In your zone, right now is the perfect time to move.
Have fun,
