What month is best to plant evergreen trees?

August through early October is a prime time for root growth if soil is not too dry, so this is a fine time to plant many trees including conifers such as spruce (Picea) and pine (Pinus)given that you keep up with watering until adequate rains fall. Evergreens in general are best planted in late summer. Generally, evergreens grow better when soil pH is acidic; many nutrients may be unavailable to the plant when soil is too alkaline. Depending on rainfall, water evergreens through late fall. The best time to fertilize your evergreens is before new growth expands, around early April in Minnesota, up to about mid-July.

What is the plant for the month of June?

Warm-season vegetables that can still be planted through June include basil, beans, cucumbers, edamame, eggplants, melons, okra, peppers, summer squash, sweet potatoes, and tomatoes. In June, legumes such as soybeans, southern peas, and Partridge pea are other good legumes to consider. Soybeans are a great summer cover crop and they are also a legume, so they add nitrogen to the soil.
