Lilly of the valley
« on: May 16, 2006, 17:15:48 »
I have a small clump which is just starting to flower now. Unfortunately its in the wrong place and cannot be seen.

Can i move it and if so when would be the best time/state of the plant to do so?

I have one or two new homes in mind.   ;D

I tend to move it after flowering, but you could do it when dormant, too, if you could remember where it was. It grows like a weed for me, and seems to thrive when given fresh areas to colonize.

If you transplanted it now you would loose the flowers but it is easier to see with the leaf on, so cut some flower stalks and then transplant them!
