You could practically hack it out of the ground and it will root, if given adequate soil and moisture. Not so great in full sun but then I'm in Florida. You probably have woodier roots from the larger trees around it that are growing through that Philodendron's roots. Be selective in how you cut them because pruning there could hurt those trees more than the Philly at this time of year. So kinda loosen up the soil in a circle around it in maybe a 2 to 3 foot diameter circle, get an idea of any tree roots locations and then pry the Philly out of the ground and from around substantial tree roots. When you replant, the Philly should probably be staked for a few months just to keep it as upright as possible. They do like to sprawl. |
