Description

Easily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils in full sun. Tolerant of a wide range of soils including heavy clays. Does well in poor, dry, infertile soils. Tends to open up and/or flop in moist, rich soils however. May self-seed in optimum growing conditions. Cut back to the ground in late winter to early spring just before the new growth appears.
