Thank you. That is good to know, and i'm glad that since we are only down there in May and October, I was ok with trimming it in October.

We have a few really nice big ones, and Jane was mildly irked at me when I trimmed all those pretty red flowers off when trimming during our last visit.

I did it like the first day or two of our trip, and now I know to wait towards the end of our stay so she can enjoy them a bit more.....oh well....
