: Location: Long Island, NY. : When's a good time to re-pot: when the leaves are still dormant or when they are just emerging? : The last time I re-potted, I ended up with about 6 divisions. Some had one eye, some had up to 4. I guess this is a very vigorous variety (don't ask, it was supposed to be a pink, but ended up a white. It was obviously incorrectly labeled by the grower.) : What do you folks do with the extra divisions? I gave away 4 to other backyard ponders and put 2 into the local rainwater recharge basins (we call them "sumps" here. The groundwater is close to the surface and these stay wet all year long.) I just know I'm going to have lots of divisions again.
