I am planning to move to Okeechobee, Florida in the near future and I would like to take some of my plants with me. I live in Zone 4-5 and I am moving to Zone 10. Will they acclimate to the move and the weather?
I have never tried this, but, read about moving plants and it sounds logical. Dig up a much soil as you can with the plant you want to move. Having "native soil" will help the plant adjust to a new environment. Good luck as growing in zone 10 will be quite different than 4-5.
