We’re always happy to help with tree selection.

The best time to plant is during the cooler months, from Autumn through to Spring. Trees establish more easily in these seasons as soil stays moist and temperatures are steady.

Planting is still possible through Summer if irrigation is in place and the site can be kept consistently watered. With the right care, year‑round planting can work well.
