    Leave them.   They'll fade eventually when they've fed the roots and seeds.   I grow mine in a bed where they are eventually covered by hostas, astilbes and Japanese anemones so I leave them alone unless I want to collect seeds from the japonicas to sow fresh or split the ordinary ones to make more.
