Seed from Swallowtail Gardens. Needs lots of sun. May grow from 3-5 feet tall. Make sure to water in the summer months, Do not let it get too dry. Is a star of the late summer garden. Divide clumps every 3-4 years to invigorate them. Using mulch to help retain moisture. Overwintered successfully in 2021-2022. Growing more from seed in 2023.
