DISCLAIMER: This is a yearly schedule I use for reference. I culled this report from MANY different resources, approx. 20 books and several websites. IT IS NOT ZONE SPECIFIC. So if you are incapable of adjusting for your area, you might want to skip this. There were many differing opinions from different sources, so when opinions on dates differed, I tried to take a average of dates. But surprisingly enough, most sources agreed for the most part! So here is a yearly schedule that I use, hopefully you can read it. I have been using it for two years, and I have over a 90% survival rate. And most of my 150+ trees were collected from the wild.
