I do prune it way down every year, but it is still too big for this location and it hasn't been there very long (only about 2 years). So, I would like to just relocate it to a place where it won't be in my way backing out of the driveway all summer long!  |
It can be transplanted and will do fine. Wait til it is dormant in the fall, prune it, water the root ball good so it is easier to dig out, dig around the root ball about 3 feet in diameter and about 2 feet deep. Have the hole dug where you want to transplant it, and relocate the plant. Water it in good making sure there are no air holes in the new hole, compact down the new soil and it should do fine next season. Make sure you add some fertilizer or root stimulator in the new location for winter food.
