I just checked on this. Your not moving anything out of the main list your just sub categorizing it. Your main list is permanent and sub catagorized into have, used to have, and want all of which cannot be privatized as far as I can tell. I always look at Sherry's @BoneHead because it's very sub catagoried. I wondered too if you can put the same plant in two or more sub catagories?
Yes, it does work (I just checked, by putting the first plant in my listing under a "private" category, then logging out and looking at my plant list).
True, all the plants in your list are in your main list, but if you put a plant in a "private" category, only you will be able to see it. And, yes, you can put the same plant in two or more sub categories. for instance, I have a lot of plants in a category called "vegetables," then "pole bean," then "seeds, saved." And, if I put one in the category "private listing," then only I can see it.
I guess I just don't know why I would want to do that
