Re: Spring Chores


Thanks Kitty-  I was drawing a blank on the botanical name- mine that I 
removed was the "alba".  This is the one- and woe be the person (aka me) 
who lets the flowers set seed!  I still have the red one you list below- 
it is flowering as I speak.  It didn't flower much last year, and so it 
still remains in my garden.  I will try to cut it back regularly to 
deadhead and see if it will remain next year too.
