      I've just spotted an insect on one of the pics. I wonder what it is.

        Catanche should be a perennial rather than a biennial, seems to survive a few years here.

          I'm hoping it will. It can stay as long as it likes. Short lived perennial treated as a biennial, apparently.

          Is it worth or even beneficial to tidy up the garden?

          Overwintering is worth the effort!
