Default Transplanting a holly bush

PK
I want to put a holly bush in a gap in between existing holly bushes. Can
they be bought in a pot? If so, when is the best time to plant etc?

highly unlikly it will survive the move. Holly put down a tap root and
resnet any movement once established.

BUT if it is definitely in the wrong place and has to be moved, you have
nothing to lose by trying.

Take a rootball 2' across and undercut carefully.
