Planting Trees and Shrubs

According to:ArcaMax's Gardening Report, by Maggie Oster, Loisville KY.

"Research studies have shown that trees and shrubs planted early in the spring grow better than those planted later. Bare-root plants, especially, should be planted before they leaf out. So, plant trees and shrubs whenever the soil is dry enough to work. Don't dig in the soil when it's wet, as this will damage the soil structure. To check, pick up a handful of soil and form a ball. If it crumbles when you poke it, the soil is dry enough to work."
