Don't transplant now. Transplanting plants and trees stress them. When the heat is turned up, like it is now, stresses established plants and trees. Transplanting now will be a double-whammy and could cause problems with the health of trees, and could cause plants to die. If possible, don't transplant anything now through July (except irises). If you really don't have a choice, be sure to provide some shade for the new transplant, at least for a few days. Direct seeding does work well now, as long as the soil is kept moist. The seeds will germinate quickly in the summer heat.Make sure that you keep dropped fruit picked up to keep your fruit trees healthy.
