I have a cluster of them on one side of my walk way and would like to spread them out a bit. I live in Southeast Kansas, so we are still not clear of freezing temps. They have started blooming and so I was wanting to know if I should wait to move them or is it OK to move them now? Thanks

we've accomplished that with particularly good fulfillment. We oftentimes wait until after the blooms are accomplished. Then we dig up the clump, nerve-racking it as low as achieveable. in case you prefer to cut up the clump a pair techniques, this is okay yet i would not destroy it right down to man or woman bulbs. The extra airborne dirt and airborne dirt and dust with the clump, the extra appropriate. That way you're nerve-racking the roots as low as achieveable. pass to the hot region, upload some bulb booster or bulb fertilizer and plant to the comparable intensity that they have got been initially. Water in properly and water in case you notice them drooping for the subsequent week or 2. save them watered in case you don't get popular rain for no less than the subsequent month on an analogous time as they are making new roots. you could have some much less plant existence next 12 months yet they are going to be considerable happy the 12 months after that!

You need to wait until after the plants flower and the leaves turn brown. While the leaves are still green, they are gathering "food" for next year's flowers.
Then you can carefully dig them up and replant with some bloodmeal under them to encourage root growth.
I do this every other year to "expand" my collection!

Trying to move them now would do serious damage to the plant. The time to move or divide bulbs is in the Fall after the plants have gone completely dormant.

Wait untile the leaves die back completely. You can dig and replant them then. Now would probably kill them.
