This little one is hidden by bigguns. Is it ok to move a perennial after it has finished flowering or do I need to wait until end of summer?🤔 #advice

I think it should be ok as most perennials don't really notice being moved aside from a few exceptions like sea holly. Just keep them watered well afterwards.

Hi Jane 🙌 It’s got old wooden stems sticking out of it. I think it might be a salvia of some sort 🤔 I’ll go through my labels @pelly

Ah yes, I think you are right, now you’ve said it. I have one but it’s not in leaf yet so can’t compare. 👍👍

Yes you’re spot on thank you!! I remember the label now 😀 Funny we were discussing the foxglove leaves, well this Veronica disappeared under 2 of the gigantic leaves 🙈 I’ve cut those off now. @Keely

It’s the Baby Doll. It finished flowering rather quickly in its first year so hopefully this time it’ll do better 🤞@Keely
