Care Instructions

Grow in any, moderately fertile soil apart from waterlogged soils. Full sun or partial shade is best but can also tolerate shade. It seeds around and can become a nuisance in smaller gardens but is great for naturalizing in rough grass or at the edge of woodland. Cut back after flowering, particularly if you want to stop it self-seeding.
