Hey Everyone,

However poor the timing, my wife and I are looking at a possible move within 
the next month or so.  We have a number of trees and shrubs that we would 
like to move.  Cuttings would be the easiest way to go with a number of 
things but I have about 30 apple trees that I have started from seed.  They 
are from 2-3 years of age.  My father-in-law has offered me his garden to 
help out in the move.  I was considering the feasibility of pulling the apple 
trees (most are 3-7 feet, trimming back the trunks at least a third, and then 
burying them in his garden for the duration of the winter.  I would pull them 
out in April and plant them out.  

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks All,
