This is a Kubota L3301 HST with LA525 front loader and BH77 backhoe with 12" bucket. The tree scoop is custom made based on some commercial made models.

And direct contact with roses isn't any fun either. Best to use the tractor.

That's a great point! Come to think about it I didn't get poked once and I moved 6 bushes! Wish I could say that when I pruned the other 12! Haha

Watching your video I was wondering why you could not use the scoop to dig the hole in one sweep then load in the trailer. Then gather the bush and place it in the form fitting hole. Hope that makes sense.

I pealed the sod off and then dug a shallow hole. I digging out a circle I've painted with marking paint. That way there's no competing grass.

But yes you could dig a scoop of dirt out and plant bush. Just have to be careful not to dig too much out.
