Hi

I'm thinking of moving a conifer (I think its a leylandi) from its

present
position to one a few yards away (there's a couple of good reasons for
this); it's about 16ft high, 6ft broad.

Do those sizes give an indication of the root spread? How difficult is

it
to
do this? What should I bear in mind? Am I mad?

Any advice gratefully received

Flynn
