Just got my Chestnut tree can anyone give me advise on it?


Plant it.

Yes: it'll soon be too late, as trees generally need to go in before
they start into spring growth -- but it's probably growing in a
container, so that doesn't matter so much. I didn't know anything about
the tree, so I went to Plant Finder, and they don't seem to know about
your "Regal" variety, either. I'm assuming you mean it when you say
"chestnut": if so, it wants an open sunny position. You'll be lucky if
you get any worthwhile nuts in cooler parts of these islands.

If it's only a horse-chestnut, the book says it can take partial shade.
