We chopped back the New England Asters by half and will do it again in June. This gives you a sturdier plant and keeps them from flopping over so badly.

Faith did a great job teaching us how to use the Chelsea Chop to keep tall plants from flopping.

Peterstown House was looking happy this morning!!!
