They are easily grown in average, medium wet, well draining soil in full sunlight to partial shade

The flowers bloom from June to September, and the plants have a height of ten inches with a spread of up to two feet. This is a very drought tolerant variety but does need a well drained location. This beautiful plant attracts bees, butterflies and hummingbirds, and is the perfect plant for a first time gardener
