From Pot: First, water the mexican hens 'Princess Lace' plant thoroughly to make the soil easier to work with. Then, gently squeeze the sides of the pot to loosen the soil. Carefully turn the pot upside down, supporting the plant with your other hand, and slide the plant out of the pot. If the plant resists, lightly tap the bottom of the pot or use a trowel to encourage it out, being careful not to damage the roots.
From Ground: Begin by watering the mexican hens 'Princess Lace' plant to dampen the soil, which will help reduce root damage. Use a shovel or spade to dig a wide trench around the plant, ensuring you dig far enough out to keep the root ball intact. Gradually work the spade underneath the plant, lifting it carefully from the ground while retaining as much of the root structure as possible.
From Seedling Tray: Water the seedlings to ease removal. Using a trowel or your hands, gently lift each mexican hens 'Princess Lace' seedling from the tray, taking care to keep the soil around their roots. Try to handle the seedlings by their leaves to avoid damaging their delicate stems and roots.
