stachys


Hi, gang.  I have an area of stachys (lanata?) that is looking rather sad.  
Does anyone have some suggestions for keeping it looking a little neater?  A 
month or so ago, it started sending up flower stalks, and I cut them back 
pretty severely.  Now, I see lots of new growth starting, but there's also a 
LOT of dead leaves, almost making a blanket over the ground.  When I pull 
out dead leaves, there are large bare patches, which I hadn't noticed 
before.  What do I need to differently, as far as maintenance goes?

Happy Fathers' Day to all you dad's out there!

arrived...)
