Spring and Fall Planting Windows in Nampa

Timing matters when you plant a new tree. Nampa's average last frost lands in early May. Early-October freezes mark the end of the fall window.

Spring planting works best from late March through May after the ground thaws. Your tree has the full growing season to set roots before winter.

Fall planting runs from September through mid-October. Cooler air and warm soil help roots establish without the stress of summer heat.

Homeowners in Franklin Village and the Vallivue School District zone follow the same schedule. Call us if you need help deciding which window fits your project.
