Care Guide

  • Plant in any moist but well-drained soil and position in a sunny, sheltered position.
  • Before planting, prepare the soil by digging over and removing any weeds.
  • Incorporate some well-rotted manure to enrich the soil if necessary.
  • For the best effect in your borders plant these in groups of three or more.
  • When planting several perennials, arrange them on the surface so you can see how they will look before planting.
  • Deadhead your fading flowers to encourage new blooms and prolong interest.
  • As the temperature drops, add a top dressing of grit to improve drainage.
