I have several large clumps, 4-5 + ft across, that I want to move in one
piece, i.e., without dividing. Will be moved via a trailer. This exercise
would me so much easier re handling etc, if I were to completely cut off all
leaves before digging. Is there any problem here re: potential harm to the
plant? I have this idea in my mind that this years foliage is necessary this
year for next years energy storage.
Re: over wintering in pots. If I group pots 3-4" apart, and fill between the
pots and even slightly over the pot with mulch, can I expect them to get thru
a zone 4A winter. Any other suggestions?
Thanks Phil .
