But anyhow, you can buy large-ish burlapped trees but they aren’t as healthy, often die, and nothing close to a 100+ yr old estate oak tree or a decades old rose garden. You just can’t make it faster, transplanting plants that old will kill them.
You're moving the goalposts on his poor analogy :)
Most of the trees do just fine, and these nurseries will typically provide a warranty.
