Magnolia tree (sapling?) twisted with a holly bush?

Hey guys, I'm new here and I have something very... odd that needs saving. My mother lives in SC in zone 8a, bordering the house we have holly bushes in a bed that are bordered on the other side by a concrete walkway. The neighbor across the street has a massive Magnolia tree and about two years ago we saw a very large MT leaf sticking out of the side of the HB. We assumed the HB would choke the poor thing out and that would be the end of it but this year mom cut the bushes back from about chest high to knee high and amazingly the MT was still there! It has gotten a little thicker in width but it looks like it may still be small enough (it's still kind of short) for me to save? Help? I don't know how to untangle it?? Is there anyway I can take it out (it has to come out of the bed, it's WAY too close to the house) without killing the MT or the HB? Thanks in advance!

Can you send pictures? You may be able to dig it out and transplant it.

I can but it will have to wait because I live in Florida now and I am moving from an apartment to a house (with a yard! woohoo!) so I can't drive back to SC yet. I had thought about just digging them both up but the HB is kind of old and I assume the root system has grown underneath the concrete walkway so wouldn't it hurt the HB is I cut through it's roots?

I wouldn't think so. Holly is pretty tough and you really don't want it under your walkway. Congratulations on the new house and yard! You are going to have so much fun. And I have serious zone envy of those of you in FL! LOL
I guess the grass is always green on the other side.

the best way to move ant shrubs and small trees is to cut with a spade a good bit away from the trunk, dig down around the root area trying not to cut ant large roots, into this channel that you have cut, add some good quality compost (in the case of Camellia etc) use acidic compost as that is what they prefer, then use your fingers to settle it down into the channel, this will encourage new water seeking roots to grow, then after flowering , dig really deep down into the channel to remove the shrub/tree, take your time as you need to disturb as little of the roots as possible, then after making a new planting hole and add some new compost to this, set the shrub into its new planting hole and tread down the soil to make sure you have firm soil and no air pockets in the planting hole, I always add a drinks bottle turned upside down after cutting the bottom off, then place the carton neck side down into the planting hole so that I can fill the container up with water a few times as I give water, this makes sure the roots are actually getting a good drink, I remove the carton after a couple of years as by then I know the plant has settled well and is able to fend for it's self water wise. Good luck. WeeNel.
