Fir tree location #921383

Asked November 04, 2025, 12:43 PM EST

I have a little fir tree that is 48 inches tall and 32 inches wide at its widest part. It’s not planted in a good spot in my yard. I want to keep the tree because it’s meaningful to the family, but I’m not sure where and how to relocate it. I hope it can stay in our yard. Can you recommend a good arborist to help me with this?

Hello
We don’t recommend specific brands or retailers, or individuals. There is an International Society of Arboriculture that lists certified arborists by location. You can hire a certified arborist, a professional who has taken training in care, diseases, pests and passed certification tests. Find certified arborists here—
