I moved my regular Maltese Cross, they shouldn't be any different other than the color. The only problem is they weren't as vigorous as they would have been if I hadn't moved them, but they still grew and bloomed and came back this year. You shouldn't have a problem, just make sure you dig a little bit further out than the plant size and get the shovel down under the plant as deeply as possible, so you damage as little roots as possible. Plus make sure you water it in well and keep it watered well until it re-establishes itself. Good luck. :)
