Water the plants well if you are not in Sydney then get your spade & dig
down at the perimeter of the reach of the branches to cut any roots going
out wide. Leave it a week for the plant to adjust to the loss of roots then
lift the plants out with the spade / fork and move them to their
destination. Give it a bit of B&B in the new hole and water the plant in.
If the plants want to fall over, stakes & stockings.
Should work.
Oh yeah, keep the cats out of it.

gday again all,
id also like some advice on moving plants. is it too early to start
moving tree ferns, azaleas, camellias and fruit trees? and anyone ever
dug up and moved rosemary? can i move mine or will it die?
tree ferns ive moved before, seemed easy enough, but what do the others
like you to do when you shift them? any suggestions greatfully accepted!

cheers,
evan.
