Jennifer,
Have you cut back your winter-kill yet? My MM plants looked good once the snow melted, then they looked not so great in the uncovered cold, then they started to grow again but now they look rather sad again. Do you wait until most of the spring rains are over and the temps are consistently out of the frost range, or is now as good a time as any? The ones I had live last year weren't trimmed off until late May or early June, I think, but that wasn't by design...it's just when I got around to them. Those few plants are certainly behaving as perennials though, as this will be their third year here.
