From Ground: Begin by watering the royal Lily lightly to soften the soil. Dig a wide circle around the plant with your spade or shovel, making sure not to cut into the root ball. Once the trench is wide and deep enough, carefully slide the spade or shovel under the root ball and gently lift the plant.
From Pot: Water the plant lightly, then turn the pot on its side and gently tap it so the royal Lily slides out along with the soil. Be gentle, as you want to keep the root ball as intact as possible.
From Seedling Tray: Moisten the soil before gently pushing the royal Lily seedling from the bottom of the cell. Support the stem and leaves with one hand, but avoid pulling on the plant. Carefully use a tea spoon or dibber to remove the seedling if it won't come out easily.
