I am looking into selling a 8m high, 6 yr old flowering cherry tree on
ebay. Is it OK at this time of year to relocate this tree? Is there
anything that needs to be taken into account when relocating it? Advice
and views welcome.


Do you have the necessary specialist equipment to dig it up, including large
root ball, and have you been root pruning it for the past few years (as
specialist large tree nurseries do?) so the shock isn't too great?

I just pruned a few branches on one of my cherry trees and it up and died,
so I think your plan sounds pretty ambitious!

I dunno. The risk is with the buyer, and there are some pretty daft
people buying on ebay.
