Personally I’d be looking for a tree farm that had them in the ground that size. We planted 6 about your size out of pots and they took forever to add any size but the 3 we bought that were in the ground took off immediately. Very aggravating lesson to learn, I wish I’d known better but I didn’t. I have never seen a tree farm with the trees in the ground, they are grown in buckets so they can be delivered and planted. What kind of tree farm digs them up and replants them? Several of the lubbock tree farms have them in ground. They bring the spade out, take the chunk of your yard, then spade the tree and drop it in the hole. ![[Linked Image]](https://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxmsjnpeNK1qdlh1io1_r1_400.gif)

I had 2 trees replaced last August due to freeze
3 Caliper I recall, to remove the old trees and plant was close to $4k
Came with 1 year warranty, I watered as directed when they were planted, in 2022 I have let the rain and yard sprinkler do the watering, so far they look good.

Last may I had 4 100gallon red oaks planted by my landscaper. They were 6" dia. and container grown. They charged me $500 for the tree and $500 to plant, Comes with a warranty. I live in Granbury.
This country is stuck on stupid!
