360 Sod (Donna Dixson) on Nov 12, 2012Jo, does it have any new growth at the base of the plant? If so you might as well go ahead and cut it back to that newer looking growth. If it doesn't I would wait until there is absolutely no hope of a really warm spell that might kick it back into new growth. Because if that happens it might damage the plant for next spring. If you think you won't get any more weeks of warm, go ahead a whack away!Helpful Reply
