Planting guide
Plant in spring or autumn in fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny position. Space plants well to encourage airflow and reduce mildew risk. Stake taller flower spikes in exposed gardens if needed.
Care tips
Deadhead spent flower spikes to encourage additional blooms and maintain a tidy appearance. Avoid overly wet winter soil and protect young shoots from slugs in spring.
Winter care
Cut foliage back after it dies down in autumn and apply a light mulch around the crown in colder areas. Ensure good drainage during winter to prevent root rot.
