My husband is a Arborist and he said in January or Ferbruary.The reason is because it has already lost it's leaves, so it does'nt have to expand as much energy there and can concentate on growing. Also it will not require AS MUCH water!

It's good to transplant saplings in the very early spring or in the fall. If the sapling is transplanted in the spring, you need to be especially careful to water it well all through that first summer. If you do it in the fall (My preference), you'll still need to water some through the winter, unless you live in an area that has lots of precipitation. It's also a good idea to water with a root stimulator (available in garden centers everywhere) to encourage lots of root growth and branching quickly. Here in Missouri (growing zone 5B), we transplant many trees and other perennials in October. If you're much north of here, late September would be ok, too.

My answer is probable not what you like to pay attention. whilst your tree arrives it is going to probable have few if any branches and the trunk would be very skinny. My suggestion is to plant it in a nursery field and permit it advance. there are a number of the right thank you to start a bonsai, seeds and seedlings are the slowest. because it grows it will advance a thicker trunk and a lot of branches. this supplies you greater threat to type your tree right into a bonsai. whilst it quite is growing to be attempt something with greater branches and alternatives - possibly a juniper, or possibly a quickly growing to be ficus tree. I additionally advise contacting an area bonsai club, contributors could be very effective.

Transplant in the fall. That way the tree will have time to establish it's roots before the next growing season.

Don't disturb it now or it may not survive the winter. After the spring thaw you can move it and it will have the entire summer to establish it's roots once again for another winter. Disturbing the roots or even the soil around them this late in the season is not a good idea.
