More divisions - hostas

Hostas can be divided in Spring or Autumn. If you are familiar with plant division then this post may just serve as a timely reminder. If you are not, then here is a quick step by step.

At the rectory I had planted up three large empty containers with box and hostas and after several years one of the hostas is enormous.

This photograph was taken last summer:

Divide and conquer - autumn division

Autumn is a great time to divide many perennials and I really needed to get a move on as my wholesale nursery has just advised me that my order will be delivered this Thursday!

A new project

I had been asked to have a look at a garden and to recommend some shrubs.

I am not quite sure what label to give this garden and in a moment you may be able to share my dilemma.
