That’s
the beauty of our neck of the woods, the visual part of the plant goes to
sleep, but the foundation keeps on growing until the ground freezes it into
hibernation sometime in January. That makes right now the absolute best time to
move something, from trees to shrubs, or perennials.
Not only
is there no strain on the limited roots to keep leaves alive; but you’re not
sweating like a pig digging it up and moving it. The weight is less too, no
leaves and no excess sap.
Granted,
you still will not be able to save every root as you dig, or as you try to lift
what you’ve dug. But it doesn’t matter. They will start growing back to a point
where the plant will feel somewhat at home in the spring.
All would like a drink, and a covering of
mulch would tuck them in nicely as they start their long winter’s nap.
