A real belter of a perennial plant with great foliage and magenta-purple flowers. The more you remove the flower stalks, the more replacements you get. It does like well-drained soil and is tolerant of droughts. It does well even in quite shady spots but excells in sunny spots. It is easy to propogate in mid to late spring when growth is underway but before flowering - just scoop an edge out with some roots using your trowl and put in a very well drained compost mix.
