LOL I did have to read that twice on the first time through. Left me
guessing, thanks for clearing it up. Me, I move them when I *have* to.....
I moved 28 2 and 3 year clumps last fall to a new display bed, all of them
made it and are doing well. We have very dry summers, I don't think we have
had rain since May... My new bed is mulched 6-8" with pine needles ( free
here) and on drip irrigation soaker hoses snaking through the beds. I can't
wait until the first good rain. Everything is so dusty!! So here I think
Harold is right ( I should have listened to you Harold) Late fall is best
when they can enjoy the rain. deb Ca Sierra Foothills zone7 .

> Wow! Talk about getting things mixed up. I made half my last message
contradict the rest of it. Call it another Senior Moment, and pretend I
didn't say it. What I meant was the part about preferring spring
transplanting to fall. So much nicer not to have to dig through all the
leaves.
