that is false- spring is not a good time.
Plant it in the fall, in the winter the seed will tenderize and settle better- then in the spring it will grow up faster and healthier.

That depends on what part of the world you are in. I can plant where I am in February, but I am way down in south Texas. Your best bet is to contact a local nursery to see what they suggest for planting times and what, if anything, you need to add to the soil for optimum growth.
In my original answer I was assuming that you would be planting a sapling. If you are starting from seed, start indoors just about any time, but do not transplant the tree into the ground until fall.

Check with your local nursery, like Home Depot and Lowe's both have nursery areas, and they sell all sorts of trees, too. Best is to buy in the spring, dig a hole to contain the roots and spread them out, add some fertilizer and mix into the soil, cover the roots, and water well. Stand back and watch it grow. You should ask when you buy it, too, as they may be able to suggest the best fertilizer, etc.

Fall is the best time to set out trees, account the sap is down in them. Call or e-mail Stark Bros for catalog, they will send you one and have some great trees in the book, I bought a real nice cherry tree from then last fall and it is doing great in N.C.

early spring and be sure to water it everyday for at least 3 months or until the roots are in the ground good. You can tell when the roots are rooted by grabbing the bottom of the tree and shake it, if it still is loose when you shake it that means it is not fully rooted in the ground. Good luck!!

Plant the tree in the spring. It probably won't fruit until the next year after you've planted it. Enjoy!
