Good morning Janice,
I have successfully moved all bearded types in September in zone 3ish but I
don't know that I would try it in October. Usually the ones that get moved
that late are replanted immediately and I would never do it with varieties
known to be more tender in the first place.
Just my experience in the cold zone. :)
