I'll cut some stems this weekend and see if they root for me in damp peatmoss and sand mix, but I'm still not sure this is the right time of year to do that.
no, this is not the right time of year to try to take cuttings. but the new plants that are out there will be small enough to transplant right now. you just need a sharp shovel to make a few small cuts through the soil and move them with a bit of soil intact with the roots.
