when is best time to transplant rose of sharon from insde to out and thin/transplnt a bleeding heart?

Answer 1

Plant your rose of sharon outside now.

For perennials that bloom in spring ...like your bleeding heart...fall is the best time to thin out, divide & transplant. It's a good thing to thin perennials when they start getting overgrown. When crowded, the plants produce fewer blooms and are more likely to become diseased. Thinning is an easy, inexpensive way to generate more plants and to prevent one species from crowding out others.

Water your bleeding heart days before digging so that more soil will cling to the roots when you dig it up.
Prepare your new planting site before you dig up your bleeding heart, so you can transfer your bleeding heart immediately to its new location.
Use composted soil or potting soil in the new site for your transplanted bleeding heart.
Divide your bleeding hearts late in the day or when the sky is overcast.

Good luck! I hope this is helpful.

Answer 2

What zone are you in? Well, at this point it really doesn't matter. Get it in the ground asap. It won't survive a winter indoors. Wait to thin the bleeding heart until it reemerges next spring.

I've never heard of thinning Bleeding Heart. I grew up with them and currently have one in my yard. It dies back to the ground by July. I'm in Zone 6.
