A friend gave me some hyacinth beans to plant last spring. Now I have a 
few huge plants sprawling up and over my wooden privacy fence.
 My question is: Do I cut these to the ground when they are through this
fall? Do I let them stay on the fence where perhaps next year they just
grow new greenery on the existing vines.
 I never had them before and am just wondering, now what!
 I love them, they seem to be a favorite of butterflies and the
hummingbirds.
 Also, if anyone is interested. We have been experiencing a really hot
and dry period. I took a long hose and attached it to the
air-conditioner to lead out into a flower bed that is suffering. To my
amazement the butterflies have been landing on this bare spot of damp
ground and drinking there. Anyone might want to give the little
butterflies a drink if you have a dry spell. Yesterday at dawn the
ground was aflutter with the guys!
