[quote=Anonymous]You prune first. I would wait till fall to transplant, but prune now. So, you prune both the roots(cut around the bush with a shovel) and prune the above ground part. Pruning the roots allow the plant to put out new roots in the transplanted root ball and pruning the above ground reduces the demand placed in the roots to supply water. The plant only takes water in through the very fine roots. When you transplant you will lose 40-75 % of these roots. [/quote]
