Question

I would like to relocate many of my flowers do a different location. Can I do this safely in the late summer in Southern Kentucky?

Answer 1

Yes, you can transplant now. I usually take the opportunity to add compost to the soil while I'm digging. The key to success is to water all the way until winter has a good grip. Transplants need less water now than during warmer weather and longer daylight hours. Water stress going into winter is hazardous to all your plants.
