If they are starting to shoot then I would do them now

Yes it will be ok. I dug mine up in Nov and left it on the ground to let the frost get at it (I,ve been told it sends it back to infancy) and will devide and replant in march sometime.

I just moved mine during the nice weather last week and it looks fine, so give it a go. Good luck

I'd have done mine last weekend but the ground was frozen
