    October/November .... basically any time when the plants are dormant
    Never when in flower
    Best time to split Hostas, for example, is when the eyes just appear in early spring

    Hi,

    Thanks for that. Hostas were one of the plants which l wanted to move. Would Agapanthus be moved at the same time ? :dbgrtmb:

    Kind regards,

    Josie

    For Agapanthus divide (or move) between spring and early summer, or in early autumn, after plants have finished flowering
