Planting guide

Plant in spring or early autumn into fertile, well-drained soil. Position carefully to allow room for clumps to develop and water well during the first growing season.

Care tips

Very easy to care for once established. Avoid cutting back too early in winter and divide clumps every few years if growth becomes congested.

Winter care

Leave foliage standing over winter to provide structure and protect the crown. Cut back to ground level in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
