transplanting Dierama

Dierama from seed is extremely variable in color (which is part of why they
are hard to find available in many nurseries) but to my knowledge the soil
type doesn’t make a big difference. If you have more than one species
growing near each other they will cross!

Enjoy the natural variation, it sounds beautiful!

A friend of mine gave me some seed grown plants last year. Those he kept
were planted in his garden and are all in flower. A deep pink colour.
Mine have not made it into the garden yet but have started ti flower in
their deep pots. My first flowers on 2 plants are a deep ruby red.
Another group I have had for some time in the garden (source maybe my
neighbour?) are all a deep pink colour.
My question is are they soil dependant as regards colour? A few weeks
ago in a friends garden all of theirs were a mid lavender? pink. From
my limited experience any garden with an established group has a similar
colour in that group.

I did not choose a good spot for dierama. Can it be divided and
transplanted easily?
On the RHS website I saw a photograph of stacks of ten corms with roots
emerging from only a few. Are they all functional? Could they be
separated and grown?
