How Do You Remove Sweet Smelling Sedum from the Soil?

From Ground: Start the process by watering the sweet smelling sedum plant gently to dampen the soil. Next, using a trowel or a spade, dig a trench around the plant that is wide enough to contain the plant's root ball without cutting through it. Luxuriate the soil using a gardening fork to separate it from roots, then carefully work the tool under the root ball to lift the plant from its original location. Avoid damaging the plant and remember to lift it gently.
From Pot: Water the sweet smelling sedum plant until the soil is moist, not wet. Turn the pot sideways, then lightly tap it to loosen the plant. Gently pull the plant from the bottom, being careful not to break the stem or roots.
From Seedling Tray: Lightly water the tray then gently push the sweet smelling sedum seedling up from the bottom. Be careful not to pull the plant by its stem.
