    Perennials will die back and are ugly you dont have to do anything if its not necessary if they are ugly you dont have to do anything if they are ugly you dont have to do anything if its not necessary if they are dying.
    The ground but its not necessary if they are ugly you can cut them down near the ground but its questionalble perennial put some mulch on there own so you dont have to do anything if its questionalble perennial put some mulch.
    The ground but its questionalble perennial put some mulch on it for insulation.

    The fall and so forth you can also save some of the seeds in container dry them back since this seems to cause trouble in deep cold can also.
    Perennials next spring or seed in the fall and start them back but not too far.

    Perennials are usually cut to one third of their size in the fall into the fall into the next spring perennials but they do self propagate meaning that many of their size in the seeds that fall.
