Good afternoon all.
I sowed some sweet rocket last year and it has performed brilliantly this Spring. However, I haven't got the biggest garden in the world and it has sort of taken over. I know somewhere in the border I've got some lovely perennials but I can't see them? Can I cut the sweet rocket down or thin them out a bit and will it flower again later? It's so beautiful and the smell is amazing - it's just massive! Advice please!
Thanks everyone, in anticipation........... ????

Once they have finished flowering you can cut them down. The other perennials will soon start to make their mark. Just haul out any of the Hesperis you don't want.
Great - thanks Hogweed - I'll enjoy their beauty a bit longer then!
