hello Team Trees ....5 + or - year old leyland cypress and 5 + or - year old blue atlas cedar .....looking to find out the "worst" time of the year to dig up and transplant these trees in new location .....ie: the time of year in the Pacific NW when digging up & transplanting these trees would = their least likely ability too survive being dug up & moved .....thanks for the education and assist
 
thanks for your reply, I'm not looking for the best time to dig them up & transplant them, I'm looking to know the WORST time of the Pac NW year to dig them up and transplant them, the time of year that even with water, they'd struggle to survive being dug up & transplanted .....thanks

I planted mostly Douglas fir seedlings on the N Coast of California for 20 years. We were taught that the ideal was after most of the frosts, but early enough to pretty much ensure at least a couple of months of rain before the summer drought sets in.
