Netherlands Information

I am an experienced landscaper and can tell you that a 6′ root ball for a 3′ tall tree is MAJOR OVERKILL. There wouldn’t be many if any roots at all out that far so you would be just moving dirt for the most part. A tree this size could be successfully transplanted with a root ball about a third that size. A root ball with a diameter of 2′ would be more than sufficient. When you re-plant the tree make sure not to plant it any deeper that is was before you dug it up. If you do plant too deep it will surely die. The best time to transplant would be in the late summer or early fall after the weather cools a bit.
