It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. The fragrant blooms open in early to late summer and attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It forms a tidy clump that stays 12 to 24 inches tall. It sits low on the menu for deer.
