How to Transplant A Sago Palm Tree?

[jerseyboy]

I just bought another palm tree from here, and i saw the sago palm tree is quiet cold hardy, since i live in Jersey i figured this would be great for my landscape. So i was wondering before i begin to transplant what should i do?

The best thing to do, is to wait till spring. The palm tree is cold hardy but every palm tree need to develop its roots when transplanting. If you wait a couple of months you will ensure its growth and its health. I love sago palm trees so that is why im telling you. I would hate for it not to survive this winter.
Good Luck

Its almost spring time... Have you planted them yet? or waiting till spring? I planted mine before winter I think.. They are doing great.

Sago palms are cold hardy but they need to be acclimated first in my opinion.

what zone is it in jersey? there only hardy to zone 8 mmmmm maybe zone 7b if protected itll fry if its colder than zone 8 hehe but may resprout in spring but it stunts growth and is not long term
