DIVIDING PERENNIALS ' After several yearS in one spot, perennials may be crowd- ed, producing fewer and smaller flowers and straggly growth. Dividing' and replanting these perennials is an excellent way to rejuvenate them, sayS D. B. cNeill, horticultural specialist, ntario Ministry of Agriculture d Food. In August, the majority Of garden perennials , are past blooming, and can be divided successfully. Some common ex- amples are: diylilies, phlox, iris, peonies, hosta, poppies, Veronica, bleeding heart, some flowering bulbs and most rock- ery perennials. . Dig up the 'plants carefully to avoid cutting or splitting the roots. USing a sharp knife, cut the roots in several pieces, making sure each piece has sev- eral eyes or shoots. Save only the young healthy roots. Older roots may produce weak' or dis- ease-prone plants. Cut' back the foliage to about 3 to 4 inches. After the plants are divided, replant, keeping in mind that each plant has its personal pre- ferences as to soil type, depth of planting, location, etc. Water and fertilize them carefully. 1, FALL FAIR SPECIALS I Ladies' Dept.
