Bluegrass: I divided a fairly mature clump to spread them out. I did the division in the fall, and the following season all of the plants just kind of sat there looking somewhat sad and had a much shorter bloom season (started very late). After pouting for about a year, they all recovered and took on good vigor. I'm glad I did the dividing, as I now have a nice patch of 5 clumps rather than 1. Perhaps moving seedlings is more successful than dividing? One may want to be sure the seedling comes true first, but by the time it blooms it may well be at that 'resentment' stage. I'm certainly no expert...

I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned.

Deb, I have the dark burgundy and the whitish green clumps. I think they would be very attractive planted together. I will wait until the fall to divide. Thanks.

I had this bookmarked and thought it might be helpful. Most do like to be divided in the fall because they have a growth spurt in September, but some prefer spring and some you should not divide at all like, H. foetidus. Hope I can figure this all out!

Interesting info on dividing. I would be scared to do though.
Love onyx odyssey and P. ice. I have them from mamajacks co op but still small and battered from handyman abuse. How long have you had yours Clint?

I can't believe you found that at Lowes!
What special amendments will you use?

These are some I picked up at HD a long time ago

This is the one of five that survives from the sunshine group co op a few years back

Our Lowes only seem to stock the regular hosta, begonia, petunia, nothing special
