I just don’t want to stress the mother plant out too much and kill it. Thanks
Putting them in the ground now will give the plant some time to settle before it becomes dormant. Not disturbing the roots during transplant helps the transition.
Plant in a well prepared/amended hole.
Your plant will still be active until the ground freezes.
