Gardening Unplugged - How to divide dormant perennials with Aaron Selby

Hello gardeners! In this video our Nursery Production Supervisor Aaron Selby demonstrates the technique of dividing dormant perennials. Learning this technique will allow you to keep your plants healthy, such as perennial ornamental grasses and hostas. It will also help you get the most value from the plants you purchase. And any leftovers can be shared or traded with friends! This video focuses on herbaceous perennials.
Gardening Unplugged mini-lectures are free to attend during our Open Nursery and Garden weekends. Learn more about visiting the garden on JLBG website: www.juniperlevelbotanicgarden...
Plant Delights Nursery is an award winning nursery in Raleigh, NC near Garner. We specialize in rare, and unusual perennials and we strive to carry a wide selection of exotic plants, cold hardy tropical plants, and native plants. Many of our best perennials are available nowhere else in the US as they represent rare plants collected by Plant Delights founder Tony Avent during his more than 60 plant hunting expeditions to places like China, Crete, Taiwan, South Africa and Argentina or distributed by some of the many specialty plant organizations of which Plant Delights is a member.

This is very helpful. Seeing multiple examples on various species is invaluable. I’ve always felt I was doing a lot of unnecessary damage by dividing clumps with a shovel or even a hori hori. Thank you for presenting us with a better method 👍🏻👍🏻
