All gone to seed now, but it was lovely.

So have mine now. I must ask, do you trim yours or just leave them as they are once seeded? I'm new to these so I was just curious if I should just leave them be?

Sometimes I cut them back sometimes just leave them, depends I suppose on how busy I am. I like the idea of free plants from self set seeds. But this one is supposed to be an alpine type and not sure if it will self set because it is in a rockery and not a lot of soil around for it to put its seed in. I have noticed this week some Hellebores have self set under the old leaves really chuffed with those, they have grown without me even noticing them. Love freebies.
