Features

Insights

Attractive to butterflies and bees, this hardy perennial has a long flowering season. Although it can be planted in a container, it prefers a sunny border where it can spread, providing impact and colour. It is tolerant of frost and dry weather, although it does prefer a little shade and does not care for soil that is too dry.
