You are welcome Prairie G. The perennial salvia will have a basal rosette left in the winter, not much to look at but something. The salvia can be cut back to the rosette after bloom and usually (not as effective on a older plant, then just cut off spent flowers) will respond with a second round of fresh new growth with flowers. I don't know about lady's mantle, it doesn't last in my garden. Echinacea has nice seed heads.
