thanks for the tip Susan.
i had read you could do that but they didnt mention the killed part. i am
unde the impression you can divide them and create new plants. thought i
would try this first. but not before next year. i want them to grow some
first. that way if i kill them i will know i did it.

Definitely divide before. But if you have a single cane left
over when you divide, you could try this trick. I have had it
work and I have had it fail... it is kind of like growing a Cym
from one back bulb. You feel GLORIOUS when it works.
