Tip
Discover great perennials by enriching your soil with compost or manure
before planting.
Tip
Perennials respond well to tidying at the end of their flowering.
Trimming prevents the plant becoming too leggy and promotes greater flowering next season.
If you are unsure about the height to trim back a perennial- trim moderately after flowering has declined, you can always trim
more the next season around.
