Can I move my Asiatic now?

Madison, MS

I have been waiting on a few Asiatics to pop up because I couldn't remember where they were. They did not get enough sun last year where I had them planted and I need to move them. Can I do that now? Thanks!

I've moved them while in active growth with success. Just be sure to get as much soil with the root ball as possible and they should be fine. Remember that lilies pull themselves deeper in the ground, so be sure to dig deep enough not to harm the bulb. They often have more roots on the stem above the bulb than from the basal plate, so be sure to get well below those stem roots. Good luck,

Thanks for the advise - I'm going to head out this morning and move them!
