From Ground: Start by watering the cup of gold vine plant to make the soil malleable. Using a shovel, dig carefully around the plant, ensuring you are not too close to the base to avoid damaging the roots. Gradually dig deeper until you can gently lift the plant and the root ball out of the ground.
From Pot: Water the plant before the transference. Tip the pot sideways, if possible, and gently pull on the base of the plant. Given its size, the cup of gold vine might take some effort to remove. If the plant resists, tap the sides of the pot to loosen the soil and try again.
From Seedling Tray: Gently hold the cup of gold vine seedling by its leaves, not the stem, and use a plant label or small tool to ease the root ball out of the cell.
