Advice on splitting plants...

Recommended Posts

I've got some plants that could do with splitting up as a) they are getting a bit big and b) i have a friend who is starting a new garden and needs plants.

 

Plants i'm wanting to split / seperate are bamboo and yucca and some sort of varigated(sp?) grass and maybe a lavender.

 

Can i do this at this time of year? Any advice on do's and dont's?:D

As long as they are growing well and aren't stressed by drought then you should be able to split them. Personally for the grass / bamboo you should be able to dig a chunk out and if transplanted then they should be fine.

 

The lavendar might be harder - the usual way is through taking cuttings so a little more work and patience is needed.
