Good video, but again, very short, it doesn't indicate which time of the year is the best to divide them.

We now know how to divide in spring but what about Autum time as i have just divided mine as it had finished flowering.

I have to agree with Mili some clarification needed for me-looks like Monty is doing it in the spring but are there any advantages of doing it in spring over autumn?
