Скачать или смотреть How To Divide Plants: Exposure Therapy!

My goal: to desensitize you and reduce your anxiety about dividing. Is it working?😂 Many other experienced gardeners have shared how rough they are with their plants as well. If plants can’t hack it in my garden they probably don’t belong there. Who is with me?!👩‍🌾

If you’ve never tried this, put it on your To Do list. Free plants!👍

A few things: I use whatever shovel is on hand at clients’ houses so I don’t think it really matters but some people swear by certain ones. The key is how hard you drive it into the ground. Do it with conviction! If your soil is bad, add compost every year and leave as much of your own organic matter around as you can. It will improve. Wear sturdy shoes or you could hurt your feet. I am dividing plants from April into early December. Water generously after planting and water frequently to ensure they can get established. Apply this to any perennial but thick grasses can be tough (perennials come back each year).
