I have grown lovage for many years. It is truly a perennial. And very hard to boot. We have just had the coldest winter in this part of the UK since weather records started and although many of my other plants died, the lovage is growing as strongly as ever. No need to cut it back. It is a very big plant, growing about 6 feet.
