<< Hi Mark,  Someone needs to tell my Whirling Butterflies they are sterile,
 they don't seem to know it.  I found dozens of babies all around and have
 just potted them up and they are doing very well.  I prune my plants ( 3 in
 a group) hard just about now and yes you will get some new basal growth as
 well as new shoots on the old wood.  My clump has gotten so big as to be
 spectacular in bloom.  It is near the sidewalk in the rockery and passersby
 will stop to admire it and usually sniff to see if it is fragrant.  That is
 the only fault I can find - no fragrance.  Try it with Perovskia as a
 companion plant, I promise you won't be sorry. %^)  Marilyn

That's what I need, beautiful plants with little or no fragrance.  Anyone else
got favorites
