I agree, Chelle, that the location is important. If a member is reluctant to add that to their profile, they could just note in the comment section their general region and zone. I tend to let plants get really ratty before I decide something needs to be done, and often think if I just had done something sooner, it would not leave such a gaping brown hole. Feverfew is one of those, I think I should shear that back to about 4" when it first starts going to seed, but it doesn't look THAT bad until one day it DOES look that bad, and then I cut it back hard and it looks dead and parched and terrible, but right now as I look out the window it has about 6" of new growth and looks fine. Maybe if I shear it sooner I would get a second bloom? (Pacific Northwest)
