How To Transplant Mature Plants!
Вставка

- In this episode of Sustainable Stace, I will show you how to transplant a mature plant or tree. You need a clear plan and some physical strength!
First I will show you how prepare the plant or tree to be transplanted. And then, I will show you how to transplant the tree or plant into its new location with as little stress and plant shock as possible.
This video will empower you to move a tree, plant a tree, or transplant a mature plant!
Elderly friend donated her plants in middle of UK August heatwave! Kept in water for travel, dug large holes, planted with rose manure pellets in hole, compost & garden soil atop. Every layer watered and compost mulch on top. Will water daily, feed soil weekly & try to balance energy for root growth by nipping most of new leaf growth 🤞🤞🤞
I never thought it was possible to transplant grown trees. I would love to see a similar video on transplanting smaller plants.
Thank you - that's a great suggestion!
😅😅
I will be using this tutorial to relocate a lilac tree. It currently is where the fence will be going and want to move it up front. I want to be able to see the humming birds out my huge picture window in my living room. Also,perfect live kitty TV 💕
Thank you Stace.👍👍👍Got a mature pear tree to transplant. Great tutorial. I am ready to go!😊😂😊
Thank you for this video. It was exactly what I needed - I have a forsythia bush that I want to move away from the side of my house to another location.
Hello Bernadette, I'm glad this was helpful. Wishing you well on the transplant!
Thank you!
Thanks so much for such an in depth demonstration!! Can't wait to try this to transplant some plants in my yard/garden
You are welcome Jenn. Good luck transplanting!
Super helpful video! Working on transplanting some currant bushes right now, and this has helped me out a ton.
Meow - i'm glad that got you purring!
You're welcome
Great info, enjoyed the video.
Good very informative
Thanks Sam - I'm glad you found it informative!
Thank you for posting! I wanted to see how large the rootball of a mature lavender plant gets so I can plan the size of gopher cages. I think rosemary and lavender are closely related, so the roots should be a quite similar.
This was great! Thank you!!
You're welcome Rachel - I'm glad you like it!
Dang it. I might have killed 3 bushes already by doing it the wrong away lol. But you've given me insight to carry out the rest of my bushes, and heck, maybe even save my other transplanted bushes
I hope you can save 'em all!
Beautiful.
Very helpful👍🏿
Glad it was helpful!
This is great. Very thorough. Thank you
Glad it was helpful - happy planting !
Isn’t the plants root ball supposed to be a little above ground level to avoid water pooling up?
Generally, roots want to be protected (covered) and moist. So . . . I always want the root ball below the line of grade so that water WILL pool above the root ball and help it establish strongly when it's trying to settle into its new home.
@@SustainableStace It still looks a little low to me. Over time the root collar of the bush can become too low as soil migrates into that low section from water movement and mulch breaking down on top, along with the fresh compost compacting in the bottom of the hole. Though rosemary bushes are a durable plant, It may be ok. I wouldn't do that with every plant. Hows it doing now?
I’m going to try moving my Duranta gold plants 😅
Can I still use these tips and tricks if I’m transplanting in late May? We’re moving properties and I’d like to take some of my perennials with me!
Absolutely - you've gotta try when you're moving to bring all the perennials with you that you can :)
I have heard advice counter to yours: that it’s best to plant trees using native soil rather than compost to encourage the roots to grow beyond the planting hole. I don’t have much experience with this and I have a Rosemary that I want to move. I just want to give it the best shot at flourishing in its new spot.
Thanks for your comment!
I don't have any excess 'native soil' at our place AND our properties soil is terrible - all clay - to plant anything in our 'native soil' would be somewhat of a curse on the plant's future.
I need to transplant an old dill plant my grandmother has at her house back to mine. Any tips? The dill is pretty old but healthy.
Dill grows for one year. Then it goes to seed. It's an annual.
The seeds from last year's plant grow up as new plants.
And, very likely the new starts will be nearby to the same spot the previous year's plant grew. So, when new little babes start out in spring, dig them up carefully and move them where you want.
I just transplant 4 fir trees couples days ago. I found the needles fall and turn to lighter color on the edge of the needle. Do you think is because of transplant shock?
Also will I be too late to put lime back on top of the trees now ?
What if I dont have the bone meal, compost and lime, will it still be ok?
It's a good question Shawna.
Some plants are much more vigorous than others. The goal is to provide the optimal conditions with the bone meal, compost and lime.
With limited resources you diminish your chances of success.
Every resource you contribute increases your odds of a 'win' in the transplant process.

What does the lime do and if u have alkaline soil already do u need this step? Does it depend on the plant?
Lime sweetens the soil / raising the pH. Our climate and winters (west coast Canada) tend to lower pH and acidify the soil. So, in our area ALL transplanting includes lime :)
As you likely know, only when the pH level of the soil agrees with the plant is it able to absorb nutrients from the soil.
But, if you have alkaline soil you could avoid this step. You may need to add some form of sulfur to lower pH. The key is to know what the plant needs and help it out!
@@SustainableStace thanks for the info. We have alkaline soil here. How often should i add sulfur for plants that prefer lower ph. Ie when should i repeat after planting.? Thx so much for your input.
Isn't it just easier Rosemary bushes and not that much money to go and buy a new one especially if you're going to trim it all the way back anyway
We all get to choose!
Isn't it better to use what you have instead of buying new some don't have the extra 10 bucks to buy a new rosemary plant. It just seems wasteful to get rid of. We as humans should be more concerned with the worth of something that's seems biennial now but one day soon we might not have access to anymore considering the times we are living in. Everything has worth and purpose.
hi stace! cheers for that 👍
is moving during the summer months a no go then?
Roger that Glen.
Moving an established root system is best done when it's cool, wet and the plant is dormant.
I found your code is what exactly I need. Thank you. Please give me any information regarding Michelia mature tree. It needs to be relocated because we are expanding our house. I heard it is difficult to transplant ?
Thank you in advance.
Hello Winnie - i'm glad you found the video helpful.
I have no experience with Michelia trees. So, I won't try to offer advice outside my knowledge.
Wishing you great success in the house expansion and the tree relocation!
Hi how to transplant mature chili and bell pepper plants without doing harm and should I leave it in shade for 2 days after transplanting?
Shade (cool & moist conditions in general) are always preferred transplanting conditions.
Mature veggie plants are not generally supposed to be transplanted b/c they are meant to be tended in place and not transplanted once they are past seedling/start stage.
I'm curious, are you wanting to relocate mature pepper plants b/c you are moving to a new home and don't want to leave the harvest behind ?
@@SustainableStace do you have a email I can send you the pictures?
There's a mature blackberry bush that I have been thinking about transplanting to my backyard for some time now. How exactly do I do that, without damaging the roots of the bush?
Hi Brianna - great question.
blackberries tend to have lateral roots rather than a big tap root going down or a clump.
I'd suggest:
1) Give the top a severe pruning as you'e about to start. I explain this lots in my thornless blackberry video!
2) do your best to locate the 2 or 3 main roots and try to give them 8-10 inches length from the bottom centre so they will be grabbing nutrients to feed the plant in the new location.
3) as mentioned in this video - use bonemeal and nourishing additives to the hole where the plant is heading.
4) stake the bush well when you transplant it so it cannot tip or be moved at all. This should help the roots find their groove.
Good luck :)
But first get permission
what did you do with all the cut rosemary?
I'm presuming you mean the pruning from the tree !?
That video was a while ago - so I don't remember.
Whenever I have Rosemary in my hands I think of two things to do with it in the kitchen:
1) roast chicken
2) fresh focaccia
😀
Is this success full in summer
Hello Sunanda - that is not advised.
The heat of summer usually is stressful for plants.
Digging up and moving the plant in summer will give you your lowest chance of success.
You'd be better to do it in winter or early spring.
@@SustainableStace Thank you sir
Where are you located?
