Dear Fred; This is as good a time as any to transplant Lycoris. Be careful and try to not disturb the roots. They can be transplanted almost any time while they are dormant, depending on species, from June 1 to end of August. The true species has become uncommon in commerce, but is regularly offered by Plant Delights and Fairweather Gardens nurseries. Both can be googled and it may be best to inquire if they are not listed this year. It should do just fine in the Boston area. Jim W. ps Incidentally bulbs purchased dried out in Oct November have been severely stressed and there are survival problems. If they survive they may take 3 or more years to recover and bloom. and They prefer a moist shaded spot. -- Dr. James W. Waddick 8871 NW Brostrom Rd.
