Do desert milkweeds transplant well?

Juttah

(Asclepias subulata) I planted one in my yard about a year ago. It's doing great -- maybe a little too great!

It's about 3' tall, lanky, and constantly covered in aphids because I think it's stealing water from the neighbor's yard. I'd like to move it to a more deserty spot.

Are these difficult to transplant, do they have long taproots? Is this a good time of year to move one?
