Lenten rose – Pruning
Q: When may I prune the old growth from my Lenten rose?
A: It won’t hurt to prune the ugliest foliage now but my wife prunes ours drastically in mid-March. In that way she removes the tattered leaves of winter and makes way for the vibrant new foliage of spring. We leave the flowers in place until May so they have a chance to drop seeds and produce seedlings. This tough, drought-proof and evergreen groundcover remains underappreciated, in my opinion.
