transplanters
Seedling moving tools
Transplanters are people or machines that move plants from one location to another—typically seedlings from a nursery bed to their permanent growing site.
In agriculture, mechanical transplanters speed the work of setting out rows of tobacco, tomatoes, or rice.
The word also applies to surgeons who transplant organs or anyone who relocates and establishes something in a new place: The early transplanters of English culture to the colonies.
