Chess pieces ! Thank you. I must remember that the next time my husband rolls his eyes at me for wanting to move a shrub or tree or rose or clematis or.. I've realised I play chess with my garden sometimes but we've only been here 2 years so still trial and error for me but you just made that perfectly okay.
Inspired by you, I purchased a trench shovel earlier this year, and also transplanted a deciduous azalea earlier this autumn. I will then be using it again to plant a five-gallon kousa dogwood, to be delivered in April.
I'm going to love these Back to Basics. It's great to freshen our Foundational Knowledge.
Super thorough! Appreciate all your work, Jim!
Thank you so much!
I’m going to move my azaleas in the spring. The crepe myrtle that drives me nuts in summer takes their sunlight. Thanks for the video
We had a Funshine Abelia that wasn't very vigorous and a Gulf Stream Nandina that seemed to have its growth stymied in a bit too much sun here in Central Texas. I decided to replace the Funshine with a Radiance Abelia in late October. In doing so, I moved the Gulf Stream into the Funshine's old spot, which gets shaded by mid-afternoon rather than early evening. And into the Gulf Stream's old spot I planted the new Radiance. Six weeks later, both plants are doing well.
Great timing as I need to move an azalea that's blocking a sprinkler in my garden.
I already made my mind up to move 3 established azaleas around, and have been mentally preparing myself for what I assumed would be a long arduous task, possibly resulting in killing a plant or two. Phew. I feel so much better about this now. Thanks.
This is an excellent and very thorough tutorial. Thanks so much!!
I have an established azalea I want to move, so I really appreciate the tips. Thank you!
Always learn from you! Love your channel.
Timely. There is a very old azalea in a wild wooded area that I’d like to move to my woodland tree line bed. I planned to move it in the spring. I will add root pruning to my to do list this week.
Love the top soil you’ve created. I just spread pine bark mulch for the first time & really like it!
As always, helpful info.
Thanks so much for this video I have to make some changes
Thank you! I am getting ready to move 3 small lilacs and feel much better
We just root pruned 3 teddy bear magnolia to move over by our new patio area intal going in late January/ early February
Another great use for Steph's roadside find😁.
Pretty good info, thank you. I did search uk based info so the timings for this were way off for me - shorts in December, good heavens - but otherwise a good source!
Perfect timing. I have a Hino Crimson Azalea that’s been in the ground for 30 years that needs to be moved. It gets too much sun now that a tree was removed and it is now in full sun and gets sun burned every summer. It will get moved to a part sun location. I’m in SW Washington State, zone 8b. I was wondering if now is a good time or not. Sounds like it is, so I might get after it this weekend. Thanks for the video.
Hi Jim! May I ask, what is the purpose of putting mulch on top of the soil around plants?
Hi Jim,
Can you trim your azaleas before you transplant them?
Thanks
I have some azaleas that are planted on the very top of a hill, and I need to move them. I have no idea how old they are but they're very small. They are just barely hanging on, so hopefully, moving them won't kill them. They're going to die where they are if I dont move them. Do you think the end of February is a good time to move them? I'm close to Raleigh
Jim;
I have my azaleas in pots so I would do the opposite-correct? (Including Camilla)
I’m in zone 6a and you suggested moving my azalea in the spring. So this means before it’s bloomed? If yes, will this effect the bloom for that year?
Question. What is the plant behind you at 7:00 that looks like a small deodar cedar? I've watched your tours but don't remember that one. Watching this video, maybe my azaleas are in too much shade and I will consider moving them.

Thanks.@@stephanycoakley7352

We have an evergreen azalea that is 30+ years old and about the same size of Jim's azalea in this video. I want to move it to another part of our yard where we can see it. My question is, do I root prune it now (today is Feb 4th) to give it Jim's 5+6 weeks before I move it? The 1st day of Spring 2024 is March 19th, which is 6 weeks +2 days away. We live in zone 7b, central NC, and we have had a relatively mild winter so far, and predictions are for us to have an early Spring this year. We have been lucky so far not to have any snow or ice storms this winter, but typically get those closer to Spring, usually when the cherry trees start blooming and we think Winter is finally over. Thanks for any comments and suggestions :)
I have been racking away all the leaves from this old azalea and discovered at least one of the lower branches has rooted into the forest floor! Hopefully I can get a nice young azalea to transplant somewhere else in our yard :)
I need help anyone please! I have a North facing house, the corners get part sun on the sides (east corner gets morning sun and west corner in afternoon) but NO sun in winter. I am having a hard time finding a plants that will be happy in complete winter shade and a half days hot summer sun. I’m in OKC 7a, suggestions please and thank you!! I’m so tired of killing and transplanting lol.
I have heard Jim recommend natives. My Oregon Grape Holly and Abelias seem to handle my north side quite well. I also had ditch lillies, ( the orange daylilly) that I dug out years ago that have returned, so they like that spot, too. They are that determined, I'll leave them this time.
Thanks for the recommendations! I heard abelias work well in my area too. I will add that to the list! Most of my neighbors have orange daylilies so we must have similar conditions to your area. 🙂@@meredith3588
Get them away from any walnut trees! Ask me how I know, lol.
You’re almost out of shovel. 😢
It's well loved for sure
