Position: full sun Soil: moderately fertile, humus-rich, well- drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: July to September Hardiness: fully hardy (borderline) Once settled in, this sun loving, drought tolerant plant is quite a tough little customer.

Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant in spring. Protect plants from winter wet and excessively cold temperatures.
