MARYLAND NUT NURSERIES 



WHEN TO SET TREES 



Trees can be transplanted any time when dormant — from about 

 October 15th to April 10th; we have had equal success with both 

 Fall and Spring setting. They can be set during open spells of 

 weather in the Winter, but should not be set when the ground is 

 frozen nor allowed to freeze while out of the ground.

 Maryland. Note method of protecting when set in pasture.
