How do I handle this planting?
I have a Japanese Maple that I bought in the spring. I was going to plant it and then decided I would wait until it had gotten a bit bigger and a stronger root. It is at that point now. I’ve heard that it’s best to plant these in the fall. Should this be done now, or should I wait until later in the fall?

Hello. Fall is the best time. You need to get it planted one month before the ground freezes so the roots have enough time to grow.
