The flower buds on the newly rooted cutting still have not opened.
In the meantime, I'd like advice on uprooting my 5' celadine. The tree was placed in a milk crate with some soil and placed on the ground until I decided where to plant it permanently. Well, that was about 15 years ago, and since then of course, the roots grew through the crate and into the ground. Zoysia grass grew over it too!
The crate is about 16"x 16" x 16". Do you think it would be okay to lift the crate up, tearing the roots out of the ground, then pulling the root ball out of the crate? I want to transplant the tree to another area but don't want to cut up this tree if I can help it!
