Care

Planting & Growing
Plant in full sun and mulch heavily. Water well the first month to establish. Can tolerate boggy soils in winter and dry periods of drought in summer, as well as salty coastal soils. Remove dried stems in late fall when they can easily break off at the ground, or leave as a nesting material for birds.
