Me too. ... Me too. I need some good advice on this same subject. I have
to move two shrubs to get a concrete truck in for an addition we are
having built. One shrub is a Lawson cypress cultivar that I propagated
from the Arnold Arboretum and hold very dear, and the other is a nice
rhodie. Each is about four feet tall, and the rhodie is about the same
width. Moving day is Saturday, rain or shine.
