A question we are often asked: “when are the best months to install trees for my landscape project”? Our answer, “when would you like it done”?  Sometimes there can also be a misconception to not have trees installed during the height of the summer.  This may originate from thinking the ground and trees may be too dry, but when correctly transported, installed and irrigated, any time is the right time!

Here in Western Wyoming under the gaze of the Tetons the best time to for us to dig on our tree farm is during the early weeks of spring once the snow has melted and prior to their new seasonal growth.  But, once the trees and shrubs have been excavated and become a B&B product, the trees can be installed any time during the year… beyond when Jackson Hole is covered in feet and feet of snow!

Whatever season trees are being installed, the key is having a product that has had a cool and damp root ball since becoming a B&B tree or shrub. So, if you are contemplating your next landscape project during the dog days of summer, there’s no reason to wait and beautify your property.
