This plant grows wild where I am, (the Mid-Atlantic). It's not a really showy plant, not suited for a perennial or flower garden. Although it may be at home in a wild, wild-flower or medicinal/herb garden. It is pretty invasive, so don't plant near shyer plants. Can grow in dryer soil but prefers moister, grows very well in even wet soil, (it often grows here on riversides and beside lakes). Grows in sun to partial sun, partial shade. Said to be useful in treating depression, but I have no idea how to prepare the plant for this use.
4 vendors have this plant for sale.
