First Salvia to start flowering, Cerise colour, don't know it's name, a microphylla? A Spiraea japonica behind with golden foliage and will have cerise flowers too. Back fence border.

Yes I do cut them back in Autumn after they've finished flowering, but not into the thick old wood.

Dd, i can understand that. They do get very large and very woody quickly. I have been renewing with cuttings.

Going to grow the smaller shrubby varieties......possibly keep the odd shorter ones....but we don’t have the space and time to keep taking cuttings.....
