Yes, it can be divided and spring (ie now) is the best time to do it.

It's also very easy to take cuttings from - sometimes the best thing to do if the original plant has got very woody.

Yep-not sure it`s division or cutting-just rip it apart and re-pot in a gritty compost. It works.

I can endorse that, seeing as last year my sage got very large and woody, so I just ripped it out and replanted two 'pieces', and hey bingo, it looks great now.
