Hey, I moved here a year ago, and I love my woods. I have been doing a lot of clearing...removing privet, honeysuckle vine, and blackberries that have been choking out the good stuff.... revealing the beautiful natives.

My desire would be to move a few of these natives closer to the edge of the woods. I have native azaleas, ferns, oak-leaf hydrangeas, trillium, jack-in-the-pulpits, solomon's seal, etc. What do I need to do to move them successfully? If I wait until fall, will I be able to find the trilliums, solomons seal, and jacks?

This picture shows just a few of the many oak leaf hydrangeas in my woods.
