Deleted VSS Portgroup still shows in vCenter

At some time in the past, several portgroups on VSS switches were removed, and VM's moved to a VDS portgroup. However, the old VSS-based portgroups still show in the network tab. These no longer exist on any host in the cluster.  I need them to not show in vCenter.

If I select VLAN 321, I can see that vcenter thinks that 5 VM’s are still using it

If I select one of the VMs, in the Summary pane, both the old portgroup and the new portgroup are shown in the Related Objects section

However when you edit the VM settings, there is only one NIC (the new one) and no sign of the old one

I am stumped as to how to remove the old portgroup

If VM is running on snapshot, perform a consolidation and verify.
