Care Instructions

Plant in moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil in an open situation or in partial shade. Keep well-watered in hot, dry weather and sheltered from cold, drying winds. Summer drought is the worst “enemy” of these plants but also avoid boggy conditions. Divide every few years in early spring to maintain vigour.

This plant does not come reliably true from seed and is propagated clonally.
