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...)
