    What are this young trees options?


    Move it or lose it. :D


    It is obviously young so I would take a chance and move it- better than to lose it. :)

    Hi Sgt:

    just wondering for what reason you consider it to be in the wrong place? .....and how old is the tree? and how long has it been planted?

    Have you gotten any fruit off it? I have a concorde pear tree for years and havnt gotten a single pear..have a good mind to pull it up and replace with another plum tree.

    its only in the wrong place because I am redesigning the garden.

    Degsy - I've lost what type it is, but once I bought a concorde, than I got some pears of it (8 in total!)

    Its only 2 years planted - 6ft high already.
    I'll probably leave it until Winter now and just do what parts of the garden I can around it
