These amber colored heads can be left through the winter or trimmed a couple inches above the crown. Very drought tolerant and long lived perennia

Fertilize a couple of times a month during the growing season using a weak solution of standard liquid fertilizer. Watch carefully early in the spring, and when new shoots emerge from the soil provide the first feeding.
