One option that suits some clients is to transplant younger, fast growing trees. A semi-mature transplanted tree or new fast growing tree stock may be a more cost-effective alternative to a larger tree or palm transplant. This can often achieve within the space of a few years, the same effect as transplanting a mature tree depending on the situation.
An established tree, one that has been planted for three or more years, can have roots that extend beyond the drip line of the tree. Some estimates can be up to 60-70% of an established tree’s root biomass is outside the dripline. That means that a mature, fully grown tree may have roots branching out to diameter up to two or three times the trees height.
Trees can be considered one of the most valuable natural assets of any landscape. Healthy, established trees can add many thousands of dollars of value to landscape, be it residential, commercial, or public.

After a tree has been successfully transplanted, care and maintenance are vital to ensure the tree will establish successfully. It is crucial to keep the trees roots watered regularly so the root ball remains moist and does not dry out, but also not overwatered so the tree drowns. Lack of proper watering or over watering is a major reason that moved and transplanted trees can fail to thrive. Environmental and soil conditions will regulate how frequently watering is necessary.
