I think ive just killed this! well, i dug it up and got some good clumps out and moved them to the other side-dont know if that was such a good idea at this time. its been there forever but ive never seen it flower so maybe it will now-or just die. :o(

Maybe trim off some of the top-growth and give it some rain water. That should encourage it to perk up and hopefully flower for you. :o)

trim the bits i moved t.t or all of it? i dont think there'd be much left but ill give it a go, what about some feed too? :-)thanks t.t!

I would suggest you give all of it a very gentle haircut and then make sure the soil around the moved bits stays moist for some time.
Are the moved bits in hot sunshine or shade ? If in hot sunshine, try to give them some shade for a while.

Right, ok i will give it a trim and keep moist-and the moved ones are in part shade below the broom so should be ok.
thanks so much t.t much appreciated! ill let you know how they are in a few week :o)

Fingers crossed for your geranium, my primula looked god awful when I split them, have turned the corner now , am sure a wee trim and tonic will sort them out, I put blood fish n bone in the hole with mine, stuff stinks but seems to be doing the trick :) x

Geraniums are very hardy Leigh Im sure if you follow advice by other Goyers it will soon be sending up new shoots!
