When is it safe to transplant a native tree?I have a redbud tree coming up in my flower bed. I want to try to transplant it instead of cutting it out. It is very young, maybe 4 months to 6 months of growth, less than 1/8 inch in diameter and about 2 1/2 feet tall.

hile you are indoors waiting for cool weather, read about Cercis canadensis var. texensis (Texas redbud) on wildflower.org. There you can learn the amount of sunlight, soils and moisture needed to give your plant a good start in life.
