I found some literature from the University of Kansas that recommends dividing peonies during the fall of year two. I believe that the reasoning is that the young roots are easier to divide and less time/energy is wasted creating a large root ball.

I'd be curious to know if anyone has attempted a 2nd year division and how well (divisions, plant viability) things turned out.

Thanks!
