transplant the transplant

10 years ago

I stuck 3 rhizomes in my compost pile after cleaning the patch last fall. Forgot about them til I saw them growing this spring. I've read that the best time to plant is July but is it ok to transplant them now without ruining the flowering for next yr? is there a chance that they would flower this year?

Will do, thanks. I will plant them with my grandson this weekend after the rain clears up.
