Hi I have only transplanted Grevillea banksii from your list, and sadly I have lost a few I feel natives are a hard lot to transplant. But if you want to have a go, by all means pot them into large pots and try and get as much soil around the rootball as you can without disturbing too many of the roots, fill with potting mix. But if they are too big and you have to cut the tap root I dont give Grevillea's much hope,

I would leave them in those pots for a while if they survive as disturbing them again too soon would most likely kill them off. Also water them in with seasol it should help a bit my bottle says that is Ok for Natives.

Good Luck whatever you do .....MM.

Have to agree with MM on this, at least in relation to Grevillea. Callistemon and most rainforest plants seem to handle root disturbance better than Proteas.

The other tip which I would add to Marion's is that you need to prune about 1/3 of the plant's foliage prior to transplant - the theory is that the plant will put all it's energy into re-establishing its root system in the new location.

Good luck,

Artie

Well, I've done it. After 3 days, the billardieras and hardenbergias look fine, as does the grevillia (it wasn't well established at the old garden). The tall coreas (reflexa and some yellow WA one) are looking good... but the dusky bells corea (low growing dark green leaves) are looking quite shocked and I'm not expecting much from them at this stage. I don't know if it's too late to prune now, but I'll try the fertiliser for sure. Thanks guys!
