Mildew

I managed to get some mildew already. Just out of curiosity, is this a permanent state or does it disappear with next year's flower?. Also, if I cut the flowers at the base in the Fall, will the problem go away?
Thanks

Yes, cut the flower stalks off at the base. Next year's flowers will not start out with the powdery mildew. They could however contract it again for the same reasons that this year's flowers did.
