DaisyI said:JM's in the ground and JM's in a pot are two completely different animals. In pots, the roots are confined and you can repot without too much trauma. But, in the ground, no matter how big a root ball you manage to dig up, there is going to be major trauma. If the JM is completely dormant, like in January, there is a chance.


The ground is too frozen and difficult to work with in January, though. Sad Can I just wait until it drops its leaves this fall and do it then?
