I plant them in the Spring & Fall and try to water them a few times in the dry summer. It is also good to carry a bucket around and sprinkle 12-12-12 fertilizer on them. I have the best luck with transplants which are already 18-24 inches tall. I do plant seedlings also and it always sounds good but more than half DIE every year. I have been cutting back on the seedlings and do the transplants. www.moabhunting.com

Now I transplant them at home in the garden for 2 years, them move them in the fall. I'm having alot better survival rates with transplanting once they're established and the cooler fall weather.
