I have a plant in a large container that is too heavy to move.

Use a dolly, or transplant some of if you can.

If your area gets colder than the plant can stand you will need to find a way to bring it out of the elements. Its a beautiful plant, I hope you are able to get it figured out!

Take it out of that planter and re-pot in fresh soil,spray it down with horticultural oil,bring inside and place in a bright location

How about putting it on one of these roller stands from IKEA? http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/10155666/ They work indoors or out, come in several sizes and are cheap.

Thank you for all of the suggestions! Very helpful

Home improvement stores sell platforms on wheels to put under your heavy pot. Then you can move the plant indoors.

To move the planter as is, get some furniture mover pads from Home Depot. Someone tilts the pot, you place the pads underneath and off you go

First, put it on a rolling planter platform. You can cover it with a heavy tarp and put lights on it (underneath the tarp) to help keep it warm... Good luck!

I’m all set! Thanks for all the ideas

do you have a neighbor or church member who could carry it in for you?

http://www.hgtv.com/outdoors/gardens/planting-and-maintenance/winterizing-plants. i use this site regularly, but please know, she doesn't mention ALL types of plants & how to. DIY or moreso, the old farmers almanac is my bestfriend!

I have even used a small luggage cart (the kind that collapse/fold) to move large pots.

Home Depot and Lowes also sell plant stands on casters if you want to bring the plant inside.
