    Depends on your garden style and how tidy you are.
    You are unlikely to get much in the way of new flowers, though they are very willing plants. 
    I just leave mine as I quite like their rusty brown foliage in winter and it suits my rural garden.

  • I usually cut mine back down to the ground when they’re past their best in the autumn.
