From Ground: Start by watering the candle plant plant to dampen the soil. This can make it easier to dig up the plant with less root damage. Use a shovel to dig a wide trench around the plant, taking care to keep the root ball intact. Once you've dug enough space, carefully work the shovel under the root ball and gently lift the plant from its original location.
From Pot: First, water your candle plant plant to moisten the soil. Next, tilt the pot to the side and hold the plant by its base. Carefully pull the plant out, guiding it along to minimize stress on the roots.
From Seedling Tray: Water the candle plant seedlings first, and then gently loosen the soil around the roots. Hold the seedling by the leaves, not the stem or roots, and carefully pull it up.
