Answer 1

Sure---but you might be surprised at how large the tap root can be even for a small tree.  Just be sure to dig deeply enough to avoid breaking off the tap root.

Answer 2

Go ahead and get your planting spot ready.

Wait about a month before you move it though. Its a little early for the move as some more heat may be in store for the US before fall hits.

Dig out about 12 inches from the stem and get a good root system and all should be fine.
