I wish to transplant my 2 year old plant. Is it the right time of year. Can I prune. It only showed 5 flowers this year. How do I get it to return more flowerering?

Are you actually asking about a Camellia? If so this is not a good time to move, wait until autumn. If it has produced 5 flowers in its second year you are extremely fortunate! You only prune it it is too big for the space it is in, even then be gentle and NOT at this time of year. But a 2 year old shrub will not need pruning just loving and caring for.
