I've heard you can transplant perennials any time the shovel is sharp. Just be sure to water well before and after.

HI!
I've successfully moved Virginia Bluebells in every season except the middle of winter and they all came back. I would suggest, though, waiting until the blooms start to fade as you will surely lose the blooms if transplanted while blooming. Hope this was helpful!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intent of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming,
"WHOO HOO! WHAT A RIDE!"
