most yuccas are easy to transplant. "northern yuccas" usually form offsets
as the main plant dies after flowering, and those side offsets are usually
pretty shallow rooted at first. Just don't plant too deeply. The rosette
will send down roots. In general they seem to like sandy or gravelly soil
better than denser soils. I have transplanted many, some with barely any
roots at all, and I've never had one fail to take in the new location.

I don't know the type of Yucca -- it's whatever they seem to have all over
the place in central Indiana. I found some growing wild and was wondering
if I could give it a garden home at my place. (It's my Scots ancestory.
I just can't buy one if there is one to be had for free.) If it can be
moved, would this be the time to do it or would it be better moving it in
the spring?

AND, one more question: can all these nice bushel mums in pots on my porch
be garden planted at the end of October or do they need to go in before
that to be rooted for the winter?

Thx.
