Suckers on tree peonies - help needed

I noticed two of my tree peonies are suckering - I must not have planted them deep enough to prevent the rootstock from sprouting.

How should I go about removing the suckers without damaging the graft/tree peony? Should I try to dig down with a spade? Should I dig the whole thing up, cut off, and replant as deep as I can? Help!
