    Hi All,

    The flowers have now faded on my bleeding heart, is it now time to cut it back or do I wait until Autumn?

    Hi RR

    Yes give it a tidy up, no harm will be caused I always sprinkle compost lightly over just to fill any holes in from the stems I have taken out stops the slugs sneeking down and having a nibble.
