Did you say that you removed the plant, removed the bad soil and replanted it in good soil last year? If you did, your May Night should be up and blooming. Mine just opened it's first flowers yesterday. May Night is a wonderful plant and bloomer. I dead-headed mine every once in a while, just cutting off the dead flowerw and not shearing down the whole plant. I had constant flowers from May to frost (October). You may want to buy another and either pot your old one in some great soil and "doctor" it until it's healthy again. Then you will have 2! Good luck, Linda

Sometime, you might want to try 'East Friesland' salvia. Same type of salvia as 'May Night' (salvia nemerosa), but its foliage it much better looking (in my opinion). Randy

phil .. you need to start your own posts.. especially when you want to change subjects ... as to moving stuff ... it near 100 in MI today... not really time to move anything.. and july/august isnt much more forgiving.. so to make it all easy ... we move things when night temps are cool ... 50s or 60s ... so the stressed plant can recover from whatever the day throws at it ... of course.. if you happen to be in the PNW .. where there is no blistering sun.. no heat.. and lots of rain.. go for it whenever... you need to add where you are for good suggestions ... stuff really wont die with a little followup water .. its more about how ugly they might be .. for the rest of the year ... these general rules dont really change for annuals.. perennials.. trees... shrubs.. conifers.. etc ... its all about plant stress ... look forward to you daisy post ... ken

In Betty Clebshe's book it said if you deadhead (superba) regularly it is possible to induce flowering for three periods, so I guess that means deadhead.Go for it
