We are very lucky to own some woodland and I went down for a walk this afternoon to see how much damage there is after yesterdays high winds (four trees down, all shallow rooted silver birches - not too bad). I came across a camellia that is being strangled by brambles. Its been growing sideways to reach the light and is about five foot tall with an offset circumference of about five foot.
I'd like it up by the house really so that I can actually enjoy it. Can it be transplanted easily or will it just die? And it seems to have buds on it already. Will moving it shock the plant and cause the buds to fail (not sure whether they're leaf buds or flower buds)
