Cultivation Details

HabitEvergreen Perennial
GrowthFast

Prefers a light fertile moist soil in sun or light shade[1], though it is not too fussy[PFAF]. A very easily grown plant that tolerates considerable neglect[PFAF].

Propagation

Seed - sow spring or autumn in a cold frame[1]. The seed germinates rapidly, prick the seedlings out into individual pots when they are large enough to handle and plant them out into their permanent positions in the summer[PFAF]. Division in spring or autumn. Very easy, it can be done at almost any time of the year so long as the soil is kept moist. Divisions in the winter should be potted up in a greenhouse to allow themselves to establish, they can then be planted out in late spring.
