Planting & care

Help it thrive

Planting guide

Plant in spring or autumn in full sun with well-drained soil. Space plants to allow airflow and prevent overcrowding. Divide every few years to maintain vigour and flowering performance.

Care tips

Deadhead regularly to encourage continued flowering. Avoid rich soils and overfeeding, which can lead to floppy stems. Divide mature clumps every three to four years.

Winter care

Cut faded stems down in late autumn or leave seed heads standing for winter structure and wildlife interest before tidying in early spring. Avoid overly wet winter soils.
