Gardenbite: Fall Tree Planting | #GoodGrowing

from Good Growing · host University of Illinois Extension

Many of us skipped planting trees this spring to avoid damage from periodical cicadas. But now that we’re approaching fall, we have an opportunity to plant some trees. Our Gardenbite this week goes back to 2022 when we had a conversation with Emily Swihart about fall tree planting. We discussed what trees can be planted in the fall, things to consider when planting trees, how to plant and care for trees, and more! Watch us on YouTube: https://youtu.be/G3hUNwf3lcI 00:55 – We commonly hear fall is a good time to plant trees. Is this true?
