Each fruit garden changes its appearance over the years. Every year, the growing old plants gradually fill the empty space.It often happens that plants planted a few years ago no longer fit the concept of a garden.Sometimes the stronger-growing fruit trees grow excessively and begin to dominate the others.
If the strong annual cutting of the tree is not enough, it becomes necessary to remove it. It does not always have to be associated with the destruction of the plant. If the tree bears valuable fruit and is well cared for, we can try to replant it to another convenient location. In order for a fruit tree to be suitable for replanting, it must, however, meet several conditions.First of all, it must not be too old.
Specimens not more than a few years old are best suited for transplanting. Of course, you can also replant trees that are several years old.However, the older the tree, the worse it is in its new position.The second important condition is the he alth of the plant. The tree must be in good condition, free from diseases or infested with pests.
Leaks of yellow or orange rubber from the trunk, the beginnings of decay or a torn bark speak more for the removal of a tree than for its replanting.Crown size also plays an important role in transplanting. A tree that is too large, even after heavy pruning, is heavy and more difficult to replant. So let's choose smaller trees that can be easily transported.
