Hi everyone - it is good to be back on the medit-plants list after a
few weeks absence.
My garden is well and truly looking like a winter garden - I am
currently doing the annual tidy up of my herbaceous/ shrub borders and
was wondering if anyone has had experience in managing Romneya
coulteri?
Can I prune the stems back to keep it under control and looking fresh
- I was hoping to prune to about a foot above the ground? Will it
reshoot from the stems or the base? My garden doesn't get much frost
(too close to the sea) - so could I prune now or would I have to wait
for spring? (If it has any relevance, now is the right time for me to
prune my roses.) Has anyone had success in transplanting suckers?
Also does anyone have experience with Salvia patens - it is looking
very sad at the moment - can I also prune it back now or should I wait
until it reshoots in the Spring?
Susan
