Late fall through early spring (November through March) is generally the best window for tree relocation in South Texas. During dormancy, trees experience less transplant shock and have more time to establish new roots before summer heat.
Most relocated trees need one to three growing seasons to fully re-establish. The first 90 days after relocation are the most critical — proper watering during this window is the single most important factor. We include a specific aftercare plan with every relocation.
In South Texas, the best planting windows are fall (October–November) and early spring (February–March). Planting during cooler months gives your tree time to establish before summer heat. With proper watering, trees can be planted almost any time — call (210) 202-4284 for guidance.
For the first few months, water deeply 2–3 times per week — especially during hot or dry spells. Deep watering encourages roots to grow downward. Once established (typically 1–2 years), your tree will need less frequent watering.
Watch for: leaves turning yellow while soil is wet; wilting even though soil is damp; soil staying soggy for more than a day; fungus or mold at the base; soft or mushy bark near the trunk. Cut back watering and allow soil to dry between sessions. Call (210) 202-4284 when in doubt.
Signs to look for: crispy or brown leaf edges; leaves dropping earlier than expected; soil that’s dry several inches below the surface; tree looks stressed during afternoon heat. Increase watering frequency and water deeply — aim for 12–18 inches below the soil surface.
For smaller yards we recommend: Desert Willow (small, flowering, heat-tolerant), Texas Mountain Laurel (evergreen with fragrant blooms), Crape Myrtle (colorful blooms, great for tighter spaces), and Yaupon Holly in tree form (evergreen, can be shaped). Visit our Atascosa nursery for help choosing.
Popular picks: Live Oak (classic Texas shade tree — needs room to spread), Cedar Elm (tough, adaptable, great shade), Mexican Sycamore (fast-growing, likes consistent watering first few years), and Chinquapin Oak (sturdy structure, excellent shade canopy). Visit or call (210) 202-4284.
Water deeply and consistently (early morning is best); mulch with a 3–4 inch layer to retain moisture; avoid pruning in peak summer heat; watch for signs of heat stress such as wilting leaves or scorched edges. Our trees are chosen to thrive in South Texas conditions.
