Fibre Optic Grass care - anyone grow these?

I've got some of the above in my wildlife pond.
I've read they should be tidied up in autumn so I trimmed off bits that were in the water last autumn, do I need to do anything else with them as they still look a bit tatty?
Thanks

    IMHO , once they start growing they'll look just fine.

    Mine is under water as an oxygenator so done nothing with it and the frogs have spawned in it..

    Thanks both.
    I just wondered if I should be trimming anything off.
    I'l leave them alone

    I 'comb' my grasses with a small hand rake.  It gets rid of some of the dead leaves.  Don't fall in though!

    Good idea, thanks - I do the same with grasses elsewhere.
    I'll give it a comb through
