can i put in perennials now? can i move them now/ can i transplant them from another location to mine now? or do I need to wait until after the last frost date?

i know annuals i have to wait, but i am not sure about perennials.

thanks
debi

Hi debi, I like to move things around as early as possible in my garden. I think it's less stress on the plant if they're just coming out of dormancy and don't have a lot of new growth. They recover much quicker and usually they hardly notice the disturbance. ~So~ I'd say go for it. Just be careful with new plants that have been growing in a cozy, warm greenhouse and haven't been outside for long.
