Can the sucker root be severed from the main tree and moved to our
current home?


Very likely. If, upon digging it up, it has no roots of its own,
then it will probably die. But doing so shouldn't harm the main
plant. I would certainly try it, and have succeeded with several
plants like that - and failed with others.

Ta. That's the conclusion we had half-reached and are thinking of giving
it a try this autumn.
