Charleston is 1.5 hours due east of me, so the same time as here. From the first week of May to the last week of July.
Summer
After flowering. Unless the plants have outgrown their space it is better not to prune them. You may lose the next years flower.
Soon after puberty.
The best time is after the first frost and before the last frost of your region. This is because you want to transplant when the plant is dormant.
The best time to transplant cedars in the mid-south region is typically in late fall or early spring when the weather is mild, and the trees are dormant. This allows the cedars to establish their roots before facing the stresses of summer heat or winter cold. Avoid transplanting during the peak of summer or winter to give the cedars the best chance of success.
The best time to plant most trees is during dormancy, so late Fall to early Spring is the best time to plant or transplant hybrid poplars. I feel, if you transplant around December, your trees have plenty of time to get used to their new location before new root, leaf and stem growth begin.
The best time to transplant a peach tree is January. The trees are still dormant from the winter, which will reduce the shock of transplantation. It is also best to transplant a peach tree when it is at least one year old and preferably not after they reach three years old.
Rainy season is the best time to transplant seed. During rainy season, there is a lot of humidity, hence the seed sprouts will get required good quality of water for a better growth.
Early Spring where I live. Early Spring where I live.
Spring
I just read on Fox Hills Lilac Farm's website that the best time is between April and Oct. They stated that 75% are done in the fall.
