Division Keeps Perennials Thriving

Over time, many perennials become overcrowded at the center, leading to reduced blooming and overall vigor even though the plant looks larger from the outside. Dividing at the right time of year, with proper technique for the specific species, rejuvenates the plant and often produces additional divisions you can replant elsewhere in your garden or share. We assess which of your perennials would benefit from division and time the work appropriately for each species’ specific needs.

Signs a Perennial Needs Dividing

Reduced blooming, a dead or hollow center, or a clump that’s grown significantly larger than when planted are all signs a perennial may benefit from division.

Timing Division Correctly

Most perennials divide best in either early spring or fall, depending on the species and whether it blooms in spring or later in the season, we time the work accordingly.

What to Do With Extra Divisions

Division often produces more plant material than the original space needs, we can help relocate extras into other garden beds as part of our planting and replanting service.

Division and Colorado Springs’ Growing Season

Our relatively short growing season means divided plants benefit from being replanted with enough time to reestablish before summer heat or fall frost, timing matters more here than in milder climates.
