From Ground: First, water the mountain bellwort plant to dampen the soil, making it easier to handle the roots. Then, dig a generous circle around the plant with a shovel or spade, aiming to retain as much of the root ball as possible. Gently work the shovel beneath the roots to lift the plant carefully out of its original location.
From Pot: Begin by watering the mountain bellwort to ensure the roots are hydrated. Turn the pot sideways and tap the sides to loosen the soil. Gently pull the plant by the base and wiggle it free from the pot. Make sure to support the root ball to prevent it from breaking apart.
From Seedling Tray: Water the seedlings to moisten the soil for easier removal. Use a gardening tool or your fingers to gently tease the seedlings out of the tray by lifting on the leaves, not the stem. Ensure minimal disturbance to the roots during this process.
