Transplanting Trees Not Difficult
Bach to Babyhood
Many people have seen a large well­
shaped tree growing and wished it
was near their home.
Few people
realize these trees may be moved with
ordinary tools quite satisfactory and
easily.
Deciduous trees, those that
drop their leaves, may be moved any
time while dormant. It is preferable
to move evergreens in the late fall or 1
early winter though they may be
moved as late as May.
The first step in moving a large
tree is to learn something of the root
system if possible. That is, find out
whether it is a tree with a tap root
or one with surface roots.
The size
of the ball of dirt to be left around
the roots of the tree will depend on
this fact. A ball four feet across and
two feet thick would be about right
for a tree 12 feet high with medium
root spread.
If the tree is of the
tap root type the ball would want to
be much deeper and not so wide.
In starting to move a tree dig a ’
trench around sufficiently large for a s
man to work in without being ■
cramped in movement. If the tree is
small the ball of dirt left can be
round but if large it is easier to han­
dle if the ball is square. When the
trench is of the necessary depth, box
up the ball of dirt, build a sort of
flower pot around the roots.

factory.
Next under cut the roots
but do not attempt to rock the tree
until every root is cut, otherwise the
ball will break and much of the dirt
will be lost.
After all the roots are
cut, tip the tree and nail some boards
across the bottom and then the tree
is ready to be moved.
To get the tree out of its hole a;
runway to pull it over is good, though
a tripod and block and tackle can be
used instead. If the tree is to moved
but a short distance it can be drawn
along with a team but it is better to
use a stone-boat or very low wagon.
