There are a few things to keep in mind when it comes to planting trees and shrubs during late December. Perhaps the most important thing is to plant immediately. Most likely, the tree or shrub in question will be stored outside, and it will be in a container, or balled and burlapped. It will probably be sitting on the ground or on a porch somewhere with the root ball exposed to air on all sides.
In the event of severe cold, the root ball can freeze solid. Even trees like Christmas trees, that are hardy in the far north, can be injured or killed if the root ball freezes for any length of time. So the bottom line is, get that holiday gift plant in the ground as soon as possible.
If planting has to be delayed for a week or two, the tree can be stored in a sheltered location, or even in the garage if a real cold snap is predicted. If cold is predicted, it is a good idea to dig the planting hole ahead of time while the ground is still thawed.
