Planting & care
Help it thrive
Planting guide
Plant in spring or autumn in well-drained soil. Position in full sun or light shade for best flowering. Space plants to allow clumps to expand and water regularly during establishment. Divide every few years to maintain vigour and encourage flowering.
Care tips
Deadhead spent blooms to keep plants tidy and encourage continued flowering. Feed in spring with a balanced fertiliser and water during prolonged dry spells. Divide congested clumps every 3–5 years.
Winter care
Cut back foliage after it dies down in autumn. Mulch lightly in colder areas, although established plants are very hardy and require little protection.
