Default Pruning Perennial Plants Question

Hello,

I grew some perennial plants this year , one of which is "Coryopsis
Lanceolata Sterntaler" which is still in flower.

When and how should I prune this plant. Should I cut just the stems down, or
cut the whole plant down to ground level ?

Sorry about my ignorance.

Martin.

Best to cut back the stems after the flowers are spent and new flowering
stems will be produced lower down on the plant.
