Not to be personal, but do you know where you are moving too? Five years
ago we moved, I frantically divided and dug up plants. Stored them
everywhere, friends homes, pots, you name it! I THEN found out I was
moving to an all SUN property. I was a SHADE gardener. Needless to say,
most didn't make it, but I did find that many shade plants actually do
better in the sun.
Each place has it's own style. What worked in one may not in another,
especially if you are going out of state/area.
Another experience of mine was selling our summer place. The folks that
bought it destroyed it. They were waiting for zone changes or something.
They gave me the opportunity to take it all within a 6 month period
after they owned it. Maybe you will have the same luck!
The one thing I have found, is you can never go back to see the old
place. Most times it will break your heart!
