Propagating pachysandra and sarcraccoca


Question
What is best time of year to propagate pachysandra (variegated) and sarcraccoca.  Are moving to southwest VA from DC area and want to take plants.  How and when is best?

Answer
The best time for propagating outdoor plants is six weeks before the first expected frost. For many mid-eastern parts of the country, that is Labor Day weekend. This will give the plants ample opportunity to establish their roots before the ground freezes.

Good luck on your move, and please write again if I can ever provide assistance.

Regards,

Mike
