     My Anemone pulsatilla is a few years old and spreading. Dare I dig it out and split it or am I likely to kill it?

    Pulsatilla dislike being disturbed and the usual way to bulk up stocks is by growing from seed or by taking root cuttings when the plant is dormant in winter. Root cuttings aren't difficult and are very satisfying to try. There's a guide here: http://apps.rhs.org.uk/advicesearch/Profile.aspx?pid=407
