Holly transplanting can be done in autumn and winter, and in the Yangtze River Basin, it can be done during the rainy season. Simply prune before transplanting to reduce water and nutrient consumption. Pour just the right amount of water to make sure the soil is moist, making it easier to dig out the plant. Be careful when digging to avoid damaging the roots. Then choose a place and dig a hole for transplanting. When transplanting large areas, pay attention to the spacing and do not plant them too close together. Pay attention to watering during the slow seedling stage to help it recover faster.
1. Transplanting time
1. Transplanting time
Holly transplanting is usually carried out during the dormant period, usually from October to December. It can also be transplanted in spring, but it is easy to damage the roots and requires a long time to slow down the seedlings. In the Yangtze River Basin, you can choose to transplant during the rainy season. The rooting speed is very fast and the survival rate is high. Do not transplant in summer, as this will cause greater damage to the plant and make it difficult for it to survive.
2. Dig out the plants
Before preparing for transplanting, you need to simply prune it to reduce the consumption of water and nutrients. Water properly to keep the soil moist, making it easier to dig it out. Be careful when digging out and bring a ball of soil to the roots, otherwise it will be damaged and affect its survival.
3. Transplanting
Choose a suitable planting site and dig a hole slightly deeper than the soil ball. Plant the holly inside, fill it with soil, compact it, and water it thoroughly. If transplanting a large area, you need to control the strength of each plant to avoid being too close to each other, which will affect the light and ventilation.
4. Slow seedling maintenance
Depending on the time of transplanting, the maintenance methods during the slow seedling period also vary. If it is transplanted in autumn and winter, watering should not be too much. When transplanting in spring, give it plenty of light and water it regularly to keep the substrate moist. Transplanting during the rainy season will be fine as long as there is enough rain, otherwise you will need to water more.
