I'll tag a query here

Last summer I sowed all my P. pratens var bohemica - I might have spelt it wrong - and they came up very fast. They were doing great until December. They all died back and may have died. Today I noticed some are coming in to leaf again. Will I leave them in the 4L pot for another year or pot on as they come up again.
