goldfinch4 said:Hi Liz, generally if plants bloom in the spring or early summer, the best time to divide them is fall. If they bloom in late summer or fall, the best time to divide them is spring. Not all plants do well divided in the fall though, but if you do, try to do it 6-8 weeks before a hard frost. That gives the roots time to grow before the ground freezes.


Thanks for the excellent info! Hurray! I tip my hat to you. Thumbs up

Now I'll just have to remember it!
Welcome to the Agastache and Salvias Forum!

Hummingbirds are beautiful flying jewels in the garden!
