Care Instructions

Best grown in a moist, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Tolerant of wetter soils and good in clay. The flowers persist into winter so cut clumps to the ground in late winter just before the new shoots appear in spring. An ideal accent plant for front-middle of a border.
