my husband is giving me several 5 caliper live oaks for our anniversary...does it matter if they are planted now or should i wait until oct. or nov. to do this...i live on the coast of south carolina...he is buying them from a tree farm and they will be dug and transplanted at our request...i know they need lots of water until established which means a year or more...i'm ready to do this...thanks in advance for any help...virginia
