  • Dividing sage

    I have a sage plant which is now rapidly spreading out and seems to have formed three main clumps on longish sections of stem (which formed from where I ran it over with my lawn mower). The stems have rooted, I'm not sure to what extent, but one of the clumps is growing into the lawn and I want to divide the plant and move that clump back into the border so I don't have to wait for my cuttings to fill in the space. Can I just cut the stem off the main plant and move it wholesale, if I don't disturb the roots, or will I have to just cut my losses and plant cuttings in the border and wait for them to reach a decent size?

    If the ones you want to move are well rooted cut the stem and leave them for a bit to acclimatize and then move them.

      Leave them for a bit. Why didn't I think of that. Thanks!
