Your way is probably the right way, and I should go and cut mine back too. I like the hostas that produce the white flowers the best, the purply ones are long and stringing and boring, but the white flower are almost like orchids, I suppose I could always make a bouquet out of them.

I have been told that it helps the plant keep its attention and energy on growing leaves, not reproducing. I am not a big fan of droopy hosta flowers, they aren’t that spectacular to look at compared to the showy leaves. It is totally a person preference, (and probably a less common approach) but I thought I’d mention it to see what you thought. I’m jealous of your mature garden. I’m still building my sunny back garden, and really hoping by next year to have it reach a mature point and look filled in.
