Can you uproot plumbagos and transplant without harm?
Move them in spring. They are very tough, I tried to remove one , at my home with a mattock, thought I had it all, grew right back better than ever but now I have two bushes. Correct way to move them is a few weeks before transplanting use a sharp spade and cut down right around the plant in a circle, this encourages the plants to send out fine feeder roots. Depending on how big a root ball you can shift this will determine the diameter of the circle. Try to take as much root mass as you can manage. Prepare the garden bed they are to be moved to at the same time. Don’t use fertilizers this may burn the new plants. When you come to transplant, water the plants well the night before. Cut 1/2 to 2/3 of the top foliage of the plant off. (When they are moved the plant will try to support all the foliage and it wont have the roots to support it and that would be very stressful to it). Dig as deeply as you can and take out the plant (I like to leave as much soil still on the plant as possible
