✂️ Care
Very easy to care for. Cut back stems to the ground in spring after the last frosts and apply an organic mulch to retain soil moisture. Light fertilization in spring supports abundant flowering.
No staking required. This perennial returns faithfully every year and creates a spectacular effect at the back of borders or in mass plantings, offering remarkably beautiful flowers season after season.
