Hi,
I divided my three Monarda today. I now have six plants that i have moved to different positions. I just dug around them and chopped them in half with a spade ! Have i done this correctly ??

I'm glad you asked about dividing  I bought a Lychnis last week from the GC. I was trying to hold off planting it out, but would it be safe to divide it now before putting it in the garden? I was bit worried in case the weather turns bad and it is somehow weakened.  |

Hi Andy,
I found that when the plant got stressed during dry periods it developed a bit of mildew. My soil is heavy and failt moist so i dont usally get a problem, but i know i shouldnt say this but at the first signs give it a spray and that usally does the trick !
