Planting Instructions: Dig a hole large enough to encompass the roots without bending or circling. Set the plant in place so the crown (part of the plant where the root meets the stem) is about 1-2 inches below the soil surface. Cover with soil to the original soil surface and water thoroughly. Best grown in organically rich, medium wet to wet, well-drained soils in part shade. Soils must be kept uniformly moist and not allowed to dry out. Best performance occurs in cool summer climates where night temperatures consistently dip below 70 degrees F. In optimum growing conditions, plants may spread to form large clumps.
Pests or Diseases: They do not readily succumb to any pests in a major way, so they are sure to reward you with a pleasing display.
