In reply to Sean:
"This type of annual treatment does not allow
for flowering, which is, to my mind, a shame"
"The flowers are often a very pale lavender,
which does not show well against the blue skies of spring"
I have decided that I will only cut every 2nd or 3rd year. It flowered
again the second year. the important part of the exercise was to get
only
one main trunk to be able to delight in the huge leaves.
Your second statement about the flowers is true, quite pretty but rather
lost on a sunny day. It grows so tall, so rapidly, it may be grown
with sub-shrubs
underneath. It appears not to be greedy
