Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun to full shade and average to moist soil of most types. It blooms in spring, summer, and autumn. Hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the flowers.
Pairs well with Bishop of Llandaff dahlia, Mondo grass, and Bluebell.
