Hi Cheryl, 
I have no experience w turkeys but when I want to keep cats out of beds I use 
those sections of those cheap folding fences laid down flat. This could also 
be accomplished with wire coat hangers.

For me, the division of your potted perennials might depend on which ones 
they are as some prefer spring, others fall, division. But, because it's 
getting late in the season such that new divisions wouldn't have much time to 
"grab", I'd probably wait until spring. We have issues w fluctuating winter 
temps here that cause heaving of plants divided or planted too late to get a 
good hold.

Hello all

So - I have several (okay more like 4-6) pots of perennials that I am going 
to over winter once again. I’ve gotten pretty good at that part, but several 
look like they’re ready for division and refreshing.  Do it now, late 
September in a New Hampshire garden or wait until spring.  

And, the turkeys are using the garden as a dust bath. Any ideas on how to 
discourage them?


Hope every one had a great growing season

Cheryl
