Can You Divide Lilies While They're Blooming?
« on: May 25, 2010, 04:10:14 PM »
I didn't divide last year, and they really need it this year!  But most of them are blooming.... Can I divide now, or should I wait 'til they're not blooming, or 'til fall?

Thanks

Divide away.  Just make sure you leave enough of the rhizome to support the growing crown.

There is never enough room for all of the water lilies that I want ;-)
