Barbara,
If you decide to beg and plead with the new owners, then you best get
it in writing!! My mother and I both had experiences where we were
told we could come back in the spring and dig, but come spring, the new
owners had changed their minds!! I always figured that it was best to
go ahead and dig. If I lost it, well I was going to lose it by leaving it
too!
It sounds like the Sibs may be going dormant if the older leaves have
turned brown, even though there are some small green leaves. If the ground
is too frozen to to replant them, you might keep them in the garage
for the winter (potted of course). I have found that once you leave the
property, you can never go back and get things, so when we would move
I would dig and pot everything I wanted to take with me. Everytime we moved
it took a bigger truck to haul my plants!! This last move it took a
26 ft U-Haul and it was packed to the top!! I had so many things in the
yard,though,that the new owners really never new how much I took since I also
left a lot, too!!
Leslie in KY, where I hope the move here was the last move!!!
I am ready to put down some roots, myself!!
