Dividing Nandina
The posts about diving & sharing plants brought up a question: What do I do
with the "baby Nandina" plants that don't seem to have grown over the past 3 or 4 years? I hadn't gotten around to dealing with the Nandina babies, as there's always plenty to do on my near-acre -- but I was discussing them with a longtime friend who's also a gardener; the plants haven't grown noticeably in the last 3 or 4 years, and I wondered if that wasn't because they're still attached to the mother plant & sending all their energy back that way? (Sorry for the rather "New Age" description, but words fail me -- just this once!) The two of us decided that I should try using a sharp spade to cut between the mother Nandina and the baby plants, but not dig anything up. If the little plants survived, I'd dig them up & transplant them this fall/winter. Anyone have any hints? I'm more than willing to share the plants, but they're won't be that many, so I'll post if I have some to share. Anne Lurie NE Raleigh |
