Planting & care

Help it thrive

Planting guide

Plant in spring or autumn into fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil. Position in sun or light shade and water regularly during dry weather while establishing.

Care tips

Deadhead regularly to encourage repeat flowering. Divide congested clumps every few years in spring or autumn to maintain vigour.

Winter care

Fully hardy in most UK gardens. Cut back faded foliage in late autumn or early spring and mulch lightly in colder areas.
