Me, too, Lynda - never occurred to me, either...duh:-)  But, I shall
try it this year when I bring Ermentrude back in the house as I will
not cut her back this year to see if I get more flowers next year and
if I don't do something, there will not be room in our bedroom for
the three of us.  Well, if you can figure out whether it's new, old
or both, I will be glad to find out...it's one of those nagging
things.
