Since I've either had to search the net or ask people for the tenth time to help me out I found it valuable.

Some things I've read should be done differently such as Asclepias tuberosa. Maybe I've read to cut them back in Fall so as not to overwinter mold and other foliage problems. Same for Asclepias incarnata.

Guess everyone has their own method and timing but for us newbs this list for Spring & Fall seems like a good guide to start us out.

Hope someone finds it useful. :)

Better late than never.

And, let me remind anyone who is interested, if you live in the east with wet winters and you hope to overwinter western Agastaches (A. cana, A. rupestris, and hybrids), Gauras, Zauschnerias, some Artemisias (like Powys Castle), DO NOT cut them back until spring. The cut stems draw moisture into the crowns and that is guaranteed to kill them.
