From Ground: First, water the lawyer's tongue to moisten the soil around it, making it easier to remove. Then, gently dig a wide trench around the plant using your shovel or spade, ensuring the root ball remains undamaged. Once the plant is loose, carefully lift it out of the ground, trying to keep the root ball as intact as possible.
From Pot: Start by watering the lawyer's tongue plant to make the process easier. Next, place your hand on top of the soil, with the stem between your fingers. Gently tip the pot upside down to allow the plant and its root ball to slide out. If the plant is stuck, you might need to gently tap the sides or bottom of the pot to loosen it.
From Seedling Tray: Make sure the lawyer's tongue is well-watered before you start this process. Gently hold the plant at its base and use a spoon or a small tool to lever it out of the tray, being careful to not damage the roots.
