It performs best in a sunny position with well-drained soil and is particularly valuable for adding height and movement to borders without overwhelming neighbouring plants.

The elegant flowers are excellent for cutting and combine beautifully with both pastel and vibrant summer flowers.

🌿 How to grow

Plant out in a sunny position, spacing plants approximately 25–30 cm apart.  In very cold climates be prepared to cover with fleece cloth.

Water well after planting and keep lightly moist while establishing. Once settled, plants require very little maintenance and will produce an abundance of elegant flowers throughout late Spring into summer. Taller plants may benefit from support in more exposed locations.
