Is your garden looking crowded? Dividing perennials will allow you to rearrange your garden ahead of winter. Next spring your newly divided perennials will be lush, have vigorous blooms, and add delight to your landscape.

Not all plants benefit from fall division, late-summer and fall-blooming perennials will usually do better when divided in the spring, when the foliage isn’t also supporting flowers.

Note: some perennials, such as daylilies, respond favorably to division regardless of the season.
