Generally speaking, the traditional planting time for folks in the South is February through mid-March, and folks up North have to wait for the ground to thaw in the spring.

Fall Tree Fertilization

Most folks fertilize their trees in the late winter and spring. That’s a great time to fertilize, because the plants are either about to grow or are making their big spring time flush of growth, and need the extra energy. It’s also cooler and raining frequently, which can help get nitrogen to the plant roots before it vapes off into the atmosphere.
