Can You Transplant Flowers That Are Blooming?
Can You Transplant Flowers That Are Blooming?. It’s not advisable to transplant blooming plants. However, there are situations in which plants do not thrive where they’re planted or new plants are purchased that are already in bloom and must be transplanted into the garden.
It’s not advisable to transplant blooming plants. However, there are situations in which plants do not thrive where they’re planted or new plants are purchased that are already in bloom and must be transplanted into the garden.
Existing or Mature Plants
Transplant your plant in the early morning or evening, while temperatures are mild. This helps the plant adjust to its new location with the least amount of stress. Remove the entire root ball and carefully bury the plant at the same depth it was growing in its previous location. Saturate the ground with water infused with vitamin B to prevent shock.
New Plants
Plants purchased in garden stores are frequently in bloom. Ideally, these blooms should be removed so the plant concentrates on good root growth. When instant color is desired, these plants are transplanted into the garden while in bloom. If the roots are tightly wound, gently pry them apart before planting. Bury them at the same depth they were growing in their previous container and saturate with vitamin B-infused water.
Side Effects
Transplanting any plant involves the risk of shock. Transplanting plants in bloom may cause the flowers to die or leaves to wilt. Under extreme situations such as heat or drought, these plants may die.
