When to transplant?

I usually start my transplanting in the end of Sept. but if the hot heat of the summer is past you can sure start now.. Just remember to keep it watered for the first couple of weeks after you trans plant and it will do fine.. good to get a head start on stuff like that if you can.. I usually add a little peat moss to the soil when i am transplanting so the soil don't get hard as a rock around them makes them be able to spread there roots easier..

and water gets to them easier.. but it is fine..

petunia, zinnia, roses, daylily, butterfly bushes..

I pretty much have Lilys and tulips comeing up in the sping and then about the time that they are done the roses and rest of the stuff start blooming and will bloom most of the summer in to fall.

can't think to well here at 6 am so i may be forgetting some stuff that would be good..

good luck. hope everything will be really pretty next spring for you and through out the year

Yes, you can transplant as long as you do so up to a couple of weeks before the first killing frost. Perennials need time to get their roots established before the ground freezes solid.

Fall is a good time to plant/transplant shrubs and trees. Top growth goes dormant and all the energy goes into root growth, right up until the ground freezes.

I live in zone 6 also. I transplanted recently myself ( 3 rd week of July). I just kept my transplanted items watered thoroughly (daily)

and everthing seems to be doing just fine.

after any plant has went dorment, you can transplant any before you re transplant them, you can seprate a lot of the bulbs and replant them and you will have twice as many flowers the next year, now if the have roots on some of these plants you can seprate before replanting
