Step 1
Decide where to put the transplanted plant. Remember the Rose of Sharon will grow rather large, so make sure the landscaping area offers plenty of room for growth.
-
Step 2
Dig a large, deep hole depending on the size of the plant. Of course the larger the plant the bigger the hole.
-
Step 3
After digging the hole, put some water into the hole before placing the plant in it. This will make it easier for the plant to take root. Then place about a half inch of dirt back in the hole.
-
Step 4
Place the plant in the hole root first. Push it down so the root is completely covered by the mud. Push the dirt over the root of the plant, pressing down on the dirt, compacting it around the plant. Continue filling the hole and pressing the dirt down around the plant. After the hole is filled, mound the dirt up so it is about 3 to 6 inches above the surface.

Step 5
Water the plant again, this time mixing in some Miracle Grow with the water. This will help build a healthier plant and help it survive the transplant.
