Default Transplanting liriope

I have a ton of liriope that is not where I want it :-) Can I transplant

it
now? Given how hard it is to kill, I'm guessing it is hardy enough to
survive, and I'd like to get it done in the next couple of weeks. Any

ideas
on the best way? It is very mature, has not been clipped back in years,

and
I'm looking for some vigorous growth once transplanted to soften a shady
area of bare ground. I don't know much about liriope, any advice on soil
prep for our are is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!


Well - it's supposed to be hard to kill - but all mine has turned brown! Is
this normal? We bought this house in June, so haven't been through the
seasons before. A liriope border encircles our Japanese Maples in front of
the dining room window - but lately they're almost totally dead looking.
Should these be cut back to resprout? If so, when? If not, any ideas how
we've been able to kill the unkillable?

Thx,
- Fred
