Planted 3 years ago, does well in Hill Country soil with generous watering and heavy feeding in summer. Cut to the ground and heavy mulch in winter. Afternoon shade in summer is helpful.

This plant is the most amazing plant to watch grow. It dies down in the winter and comes back in the spring from the roots. I make sure it gets some water at least every other day, especially on really hot days. It gets sun until about 2pm. It is thriving in loose sandy soil. I planted some yarrow next to it and that seems to be keeping the plant eating insects at bay. Basically maintenance free (except for the occassional Miracle Gro boost and water).
