Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:

Prefers organically rich, humusy, well-drained soil in part to full shade. Plants do well with supplemental water during dry spells but once established they are drought tolerant. Cut back flowering stems after blooming to encourage new growth. Plants can be divided in spring and will self-seed if spent flowers are left.
