How Do You Remove White Bryony from the Soil?

From Ground: Begin by watering the white bryony to moisten the soil. Carefully dig a wide berth around the plant with a shovel or spade, making sure not to harm the root ball. Gently slide the spade underneath the root ball to lift the white bryony out of its current location.
From Pot: Water the white bryony first. Turn the pot sideways, hold the plant's base and tap the pot edges to loosen. Tilt the pot and guide the white bryony out while supporting the root ball to prevent it from breaking.

Step-by-Step Guide for Transplanting White Bryony

Prepare the New Location
Prepare the new location by loosening the soil with a garden fork and digging a hole just as deep but twice as wide as the root ball of the white bryony.
Inspect the Root Ball
Check the white bryony's root ball for any signs of damage or disease. Use pruning shears to remove any unhealthy roots, and apply rooting hormone if using.
Position the white bryony
Place the white bryony in the center of the new hole, ensuring that it is positioned at the same depth as it was previously. Spread out the roots gently if they are bunched.
Refill the Hole
Begin backfilling the hole with the removed soil, firming gently around the roots to eliminate air pockets and ensure good contact with the soil.
Water Thoroughly
Water the white bryony generously at the base to settle the soil around the roots and provide hydration. Avoid wetting the foliage excessively.
Apply Mulch
Lay mulch around the base of the white bryony, keeping it a few inches away from the stem to prevent rot and to conserve soil moisture.
