"I'd like to know about Salvia cacaliaefolia. It has developed after 2 years
into a nice patch of leafy growth to 3 ft. Seems I remember reading it is
rhizomatous as well. Can I cut it to the base in Feb./March?"
I always cut this one all the way down in late winter/early spring,
but it is perfectly fine to prune it earlier if you don't get hard freezes.
Leaves a hole in the bed
until growth resumes though.
