We have Multi Blue its performed the best yet in 18 years.

Mine was a picture till hot yesterday, when all the flowers wilted, going to cut then off. It can have a light prune after flowering to promote a second flush later.

What a shame, by light pruning, do you mean all the new growth will be trimmed slightly

Not seen Josephine as yet! they are all going over very quickly...will prune ours also!

Dawn, that's the theory, but my MultiBlue stems seem quite wilted, so maybe I'll prune harder.

Looking at Multiblue today, there is a fresh shoot coming from the base, so I've cut out the tall wilted stem, along with the dead flowers.

Should work well then

Piilu, now flowering, which is in the same location seems a much better plant, more shoots from the base, covered in flowers.

I’ve just bought Piilu, yours sound like it’s going to be good.

I've bought Multiblue and Piilu at the same time about 5 years ago, Josephine even longer ago.
