Thanks to you both...I was used to cutting my salvias back by a third, now they will just get cut back a bit farther. I will be waiting come Spring to see with quite a few things....takes awhile for our soil to warm and then with some of the late bloomers, they get cut short just before flowering. However, it's all good, so many new things I can plant here and so many old friends that I did not expect to grow...
I have a small yard now, but I think I will be able to squeeze a heck of a lot into it....and I don't have to walk so far...LOL..
