Thanks, Frillylily. I admit that I move mine when the mood strikes me sometimes, and don't wait until it's cool enough. Sometimes it's just easier to see how something looks with others if they're blooming.
I am a teacher, and when school is starting back is when most people start to divide and move their dls. After working all day and my health issues, I usually just can't find time or the strength to get it done at such a hectic time.
Although after a long day with middle schoolers, my favorite thing to do is to work in the garden. It relaxes me and gives me time to unwind from the day. My friends think I'm nuts...but I know many people here that do the same thing after a long day's work
