Planting guide

Plant in spring or autumn in moisture-retentive, well-drained soil. Choose a sheltered spot and water regularly during the first growing season to help establish strong roots.

Care tips

Avoid disturbing plants once established as they resent relocation. Support taller stems if grown in exposed positions.

Winter care

Leave spent stems standing over winter to protect the crown, then cut back in early spring as new growth appears. Apply a mulch in colder or exposed gardens.
