ovember is my preferred tree-planting month. The soil is moist and relatively warm, warm enough to encourage the development of new roots before the onset of winter gales that can unsteady the youngsters, however well-secured. Deciduous varieties allow the wind to pass through bare limbs during winter; evergreens (including most conifers) keep a leafy sail, prone to a tempest's blow.
