Yes, I've done this as well. Doesn't seem to work for everything - my G.
Psilostemon didn't grow back, and then I missed the lovely autumn leaf
colour. I'll keep on doing it with everything else though. It seems to
work fairly well - I've got rid of my ordinary pink geranium because that
seems to flop straight away on the regrowth.
