just outside our garden, in our field, we have some blackcurrent canes, they had fruit on them last year, but i want to move them into the garden....would it be better to take cuttings ( how and when ) or just try to dig them up and replant them?

Digging up some young canes with root seems the easiest and fastest to me.

Dig 'em up as gobs says.

Cuttings are taken in October & planted in final position a year later.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?
