I've had a Google but couldn't really find much feedback. I have a large clump I want to divide and replant around the garden. The RHS says do it in Spring but would I be OK now? I'd like to do it now to give it a bit of time to recover so it looks good next year.

I find this plant very easy and forgiving and have just this week divided and replanted a clump I needed to move as part of a rescue end renovation plan for one of my beds. If you get it done quickly while the soil is still warm it should be fine.
Super, thank you, I'll crack on this week
Can I take geranium cuttings now and winter them in the greenhouse ready for next year?
Many thanks in anticipation of a reply.
Bruce.
I take it you mean pelargoniums which are not hardy. Yes, you can take cuttings now and keep them frost free over winter. Use a free draining compost so they don't rot.
This time last year Bekkie sent me several pieces of her geraniums, all different I put them straight into the garden, they made huge plants this year, and flowered really well.I didn't lose any, I shalol be splitting them again now.
Thanks for the replies, I got it wrong I didn't mean geraniums I meant HYDRANGEAS, can we try again?
USELESS NOVICE,
Bruce.
I'd start a new thread bruce, put hydrangea in the thread title and hydrangea growers will help.
That's not me

Thanks nutcutlet, it's obvious I don't know what I'm doing, don't know me way round yet.
