Planting and Growing

When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant | individual plants should be spaced approximately 15 inches apart. It grows at a fast rate | and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 15 years.

Be careful not to disturb the crown in late winter when it may not be readily seen!

This plant does best in full sun to partial shade. It is very adaptable to both dry and moist growing conditions | but will not tolerate any standing water. It is considered to be drought-tolerant | and thus makes an ideal choice for a low-water garden or xeriscape application.

This particular variety is an interspecific hybrid. It can be propagated by division; however | as a cultivated variety | be aware that it may be subject to certain restrictions or prohibitions on propagation.
