Guía de cuidados

Plant in full shade or partial shade in humus-rich, moist soil. The plant spreads vigorously via rhizomes and can cover large areas. Contain the spread with root barriers if invasiveness is unwanted. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.

Consejos de poda

Remove flower stems after blooming. Leave the foliage until it dies back naturally in autumn. Thin overgrown colonies in autumn by removing sections of the rhizome.
