Moving apples in summer is of course a bad idea unless they were dormant potted. I have helped a friend successfully move an orchard of seedling trees many times larger. I would think a shallow rooted B9 would be easy to dig properly and transport. It would need especially good staking against wind once it is replanted. Good luck!

I am moving from NJ to MD at the end of June. My backyard orchard includes
eight apple trees on M9 and B9. I got the trees from a catalog nursery in
both 2006 or 2007. None are so large that I cannot dig them up. My plan for
my new orchard will include around 15-20 trees eventually.

My question: dig 'em up and move then or leave them here in NJ to the fate
of an indifferent new homeowner?

Thanks.

Randy
