Why Buy Me?

• Profuse blooms
• Loved by bees

Growing Conditions

Light:
Prefers full sun for optimal flowering, compact form, and rich colouration. Can tolerate partial shade, though flowering may be reduced and stems may become leggy.

Soil:
Performs best in well-drained soils, from moderately fertile to poor. Adaptable to sandy, gravelly, or chalky soils. Avoid heavy clay or waterlogged conditions.

Exposure:
Thrives in both sheltered and exposed sites. Fully hardy throughout the UK, tolerating frost and harsh winters without protection.

Drought Tolerance:
Excellent drought resistance once established. A great choice for water-wise and xeriscape gardens.

Cultivation & Care

Planting Time:
Plant in spring or early autumn for strong root establishment ahead of extreme seasonal conditions.

Spacing:
Allow 30–45 cm (12–18 inches) between plants. Mature height and spread: approx. 30–40 cm (12–16 inches).

Watering & Fertilisation:
Water moderately during the first growing season to help establish roots. Once settled, only water during extended dry spells. Fertilisation is rarely necessary—apply a light compost mulch in spring if desired.

Mulching & Pruning:
Mulch lightly in spring to conserve moisture and reduce weeds. Cut back spent flower stems in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges. Leave seed heads over winter for visual interest and wildlife benefit.

Propagation:
Easily propagated by division in spring or autumn, or from softwood stem cuttings in summer. A reliable, low-effort plant to propagate.

Seasonal Interest

Spring:
Fresh blue-green foliage emerges in compact mounds, forming an attractive base for future blooms.

Summer:
Tight, green flower buds begin to form, gradually taking on hints of pink as the season progresses.

Autumn:
Profuse blooms in rich rose-pink to red shades dominate the plant from late summer into autumn. Foliage may deepen in colour with cooler nights.

Winter:
Flowers dry into warm brown seed heads, adding texture and winter structure. Attractive when dusted with frost; seed heads may remain standing until early spring.

Wildlife & Garden Use

Wildlife:
Beloved by bees, butterflies, and a variety of pollinators during its bloom. In winter, dried seed heads provide both food and habitat for birds and overwintering insects.

Garden Use:
Well-suited to sunny beds, gravel gardens, rockeries, and borders. Perfect for low-maintenance schemes and mixed perennial plantings. Offers reliable colour and structure in late summer to autumn.

Companion Plants:
Pairs attractively with:

• Rudbeckia

• Echinacea

• Salvia

• Perovskia

• Ornamental grasses (e.g., Stipa, Miscanthus)

Blends beautifully with other late-blooming and structural plants, offering bold contrast and extending garden interest into the cooler months.
