Lots of leaves, fewer blooms. Should I divide now, when leaves are dying back or mark and dig in the fall? Inquiring mind and tired body wants to know.

I've done it both ways, and it has always worked. We have a lot here where an old house used to be. Since it tends to grow up with weeds as the summer progresses, I usually dig them right after they bloom. Maybe the secret is having a big clump of dirt with them. Try it and see.
