PLEASE READ CAREFULLY 
TRANSPLANTING SIZE AND TIME— 
Nut trees should not be transplanted much over six feet in heighth, 2 to 5 feet is better and moved only in 
spring or fall when dormant. Smaller trees quickly catch up to and outgrow a seven foot moved tree, and 
they cost much less. 
ROOT PRUNING— 
A root pruned nut tree is one that has had part of the main or tap root removed when young by cutting through 
the soil. A transplant is one that has been moved one or more times and root pruned. This treatment causes 
the tree to develop a branched or lateral fibrous root system or many more roots than it would have ordinarily 
and when moved to permanent location needs no cutting back. All our trees are carefully hand dug. 
BEARING AGE— 
Hardy varieties of nut trees come into bearing six to eight years from seed, with the exception of hickor 
and pecan. These should bear as soon as the slower varieties of apples.
