great info on how you divide them
@jvdubb - I like the approach of potting them until i see some growth. As far as the winter is concerned -- I always cut mine down to the ground late fall, is that not what you do? My plant has thrived, even through a very cold winter like 2 - 3 years ago so i guess that is working for me but i wonder what you/others do. Your "bun" approach seems to make a lot of sense to me....
