Lavender should be trimmed just after flowering. It does not transplant very successfully as a mature plant and you would be better to start with some new plants.

Aquilegia is perennial and can be cut down and moved.

Hydrangeas are outdoor year round.

Dahlias and gladiolus should be kept in a frost-free shed in trays with some almost dry compost.
