Planting guide

Plant in spring or autumn in well-drained soil. Avoid heavy or waterlogged ground and choose a sunny position to maintain the best foliage colour.

Care tips

Avoid rich soils and excessive watering. Divide clumps every few years to refresh plants and maintain vigour.

Winter care

Generally low maintenance. Comb through foliage in early spring to remove dead blades rather than cutting back hard.
