untransplantable
Fixed beyond moving
Untransplantable describes something that cannot be transplanted.
In medicine, an organ may be untransplantable due to disease, damage, or incompatibility: The liver was deemed untransplantable.
In gardening, some plants with delicate root systems are effectively untransplantable once established.
Figuratively, certain traditions or institutions prove untransplantable to new contexts.
