General Plant Reminders	In cold climates, protect delicate plants, such as roses, from winter damage using hardwood mulch or containers
Autumn Joy Sedum	The entire plant may be cut back after the second killing frost. Or it may be left standing to provide winter interest.
Butterfly Bush	In cold climates, mulch to protect for winter.
Limelight hydrangea	Prune if desired. Blooms develop on new wood.
