You need a lot of tap root in order for them to survive. Since they are so plentiful and cheap, it's better to cut them down instead of transplanting. You can get some that are 6 feet tall for about 30 bucks at your local big box store.


I also just don't see handling trees that big, tall and wide..definitely not a one-person job, but would be very difficult even for two people.
It's either we keep them where they are or we cut them down, I think.
Thank you for your reply!
