I thought that fall was the best time to plant trees? The fruit trees
are hitting Orchard Supply now, too.



Nursery stock is typically planted spring and fall, the
coolest/wettest times of the year. But there no reason one can't
plant all summer if they are willing to water regularly. I find the
best bargains on trees during summer and late fall when nurseries are
looking to empty their stock.
