I don't know how cold your Winters get. I live in Wisconsin, and don't divide anything until Spring. That way the plants have all Summer to get over the shock of being divided and all that time to develop new roots. To do it now, when it's nearing fall, they just won't develop a new, strong root system that will withstand frozen ground and sub-zero temps. We can't leave anything in pots through the Winter. Sorry, I don't know your climate.
