lavatera barnsley baby

Question

I am very new to all forms of gardening. My lavatere is 4 ft high and still flowering. It is a new plant bought this year. Will it last over the winter or do I need to cut it to ground level when the frost kills it?

Answer 1

The plant will not last, but it may reseed. You can collect seeds to sow in the spring.
