Abstract

Abstract The influence of soil temperature on the survival and growth of fall transplanted Tauntonii yew (Taxus × media Rehd., ‘Tauintoni’) Techny arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis L. ‘Techny’) and American cranberrybush viburnum (Viburnum trilobum Marsh.) was investigated. Soil temperature appears to be a critical factor in the success of yew plantings, but less so for arborvitae and viburnum. Planting should be made ≈ 4 weeks before soil temperatures in the root zone reach 7°C.
