My Cordyline australis died during the heavy winter snows. Have you any suggestions as to how I might dig it out of the ground in order to plant a new one in its place.
Thank you
Pat

They're not enormously deep rooted, should be possible to dig it out with a bit of effort. If not, saw it off as close to the ground as possible.
