hardy geraniums
could anyone please tell me if I should cut back my geranium sanguineum now, to make it flower more, and to do the same with any of my other hardy geraniums

some can be cut back to 2 inches tall and will flower again in 2-3 weeks.

I cut the big ones but never thought of cutting sanguinium as it goes on flowering anyway.

thanks everyone, I have cut it back as the roots had got quite large and were pushing a small dry stone wall over, so I had to dig some roots out as well, now I will soon have more plants to pass on to friends,
