Hi
As it is only two years old I would say yes, does like full sun and well drained, now is the best time.
And as you are not happy its got one chance by the sound of it, when you dig it up try cuting with the spade a good 12 inches from the main stem all around , once you have done this a big piece of plastic and lift it out so you dont brake the root ball up plant at same level and give it a good water also a liquid feed once a week will help settle in but keep it weel watered through the summer.
Hope this helps
