QuestionWe transplanted the shrub 2 weeks ago watered it well, but now the leaves are falling & the shrub appears limp. we wanted to move them because they where coming over grown. The shrubs are about 4 yrs old. we have not moved any others do to this ones condition. We are also looking to move 2 lilacs that are about the same age, any suggestions. I just don't want them to die they look so nice. please if you could respond to my email address
