I just moved a Tam Kam and an Izu. The last few years, they have both gotten significant die-back for me here. I moved them to a rental property about 10 minutes South of me. But, it is only 2 miles from the ocean, while I’m 6. It is half a hardiness zone higher (7a vs 6b). And given that I was able to plant it on the South side of the rental house (my South side has driveway and deck blocking things) it may be enough.
The Tam Kam was a beast to transplant (tap root to sever). But the Izu came up without too much fight and had plenty of roots.
TamKam:
The Tam Kam was spreading out a lot, so I had to tie it up a bit.
Izu:
Note- the pic of the Izu roots was taken when I was gaugeing how much more hole I needed to dig. I didn’t just shove the roots in the hole I had, as this soil wasn’t too bad to dig, unlike what I have at home.
