From Ground: Begin by watering the mapleleaf viburnum sufficiently to dampen the soil around it. This will make it easier to dig up without damaging the roots. Use your shovel to dig a wide circle around the mapleleaf viburnum, aiming to keep the plant's root ball intact. Once you've circled the plant, carefully work the spade underneath the root ball, and lift the plant from its current location.
From Pot: Water the plant in its container to loosen up the soil. Then, tilt the pot to the side and gently pull the mapleleaf viburnum out, being careful not to yank. If the plant is stuck, you might need to tap the sides of the pot to loosen it.
From Seedling Tray: Generously water the tray until the soil is moist. Using the trowel, carefully lift the seedling out from its individual section. Hold the mapleleaf viburnum by its true leaves to prevent damage to the stem and roots.
