We've all heard of experiences with planting rhizomes stored for long periods of
time before planting them in the ground I've also seen successful results,
too.
However, how many of you have had success with moving rhizomes (bearded) in
the SPRING ? Knowing they may not bloom the first year - but how any of you
have actually tried digging and replanting them in the _spring_ and succeeded
in _saving_ the plants?
Many do move Siberians and JAs with much success, as I do.. (I prefer the
springtime) but I have never tried moving bearded at this time of the year.....
What say you.....
