Cytisus 'Lena' shrub

Fordy2Fordy2 Posts: 2

Can I move this shrub from it's current position? It is currently in an area that doesn't get much light and is quite wet, therefore I am thinking of building a rockery here, but don't want to lose this shrub as I like it.

    It may sulk if you move it but you can try, take it with as much of a root ball as you can.

    It's short-lived anyway so I'd take the risk and just buy a new one if it doesn't survive.

    I am not quite sure why you would want to build a rockery in an area which is shady, as the majority of alpine type plants like lots of sun and very sharp drainage.
