When should I plant new Kwanzan Cherry Trees?

[Just Getting Started]

When can I plant newly purchased Kwanzan Cheery Trees if I live in Cleveland which is Zone 5. These trees will be 3-4 ft tall. Is it safe to plant them now in Sept-Oct?

Thanks,

Most consider spring the best time since we get spring rain but planting in the fall is okay if you remember to water in the winter if it is a dry winter. Remember use the end of your shovel to pack down the soil you are refilling the hole with.
