How to Grow
Light: Thrives in part to full shade.
Water: Has average water needs, and once established plants have some tolerance for dry shade (particularly plants with thick leaves). In general though, soils should never be allowed to dry out.
Spacing: 3 feet apart
Fertilizing: In spring a light fertilizer can be applied around the emerging plant, but not touching it.
Winterizing: Foliage should be left standing in fall, this will help protect the crown. If desired a layer of mulch can be applied in a 2" layer very near the base.
Maintenance & pruning: Groom plants by removing yellow or dead leaves and cut flower spikes back as they finish blooming in summer.
Plant spacing is based on the ultimate width of the plants. This figure is normally given as a range; for example, 3-5’. If you live in a cold climate and/or want plants to fill in more quickly, plan to space at the shorter end of the range. If you live in a warm climate, are on a limited budget, or are willing to wait longer for plants to touch, use the higher end of the range. Using the larger number is recommended when calculating distance from a building or structure. There’s really no such thing as "maximum spacing": if you don’t want your plants to touch, you can space them as far apart as you’d like. All plant spacing is calculated on center, or in other words, the centers of the plants are spaced one half of their eventual width apart:
Unless you are planting in a straight line, as you might for hedges or edging, space your plants in a staggered or zig-zag pattern for a more interesting and naturalistic look:
Not sure just how many plants will fit in your garden? Our calculator gives you the exact amount of plants required for your space. Simply update the values and the calculator will re-calculate accordingly. Spacing information can be found in the 'How to Grow' tab on each plant's page.
Gorgeous bright yellow green leaves.

Excellent plant! Your plants are always packaged great and arrive safely!
have ordered several times this season. plants are just fantastic. looking forward to spring!
Wonderful
I bought 4 of these guys and planted them in a mostly shady spot. It has been a hot summer so I immediately put up a temporary shade to protect them from some afternoon sun. They are hanging in there, but not thriving. I'm hoping they will take off in the fall.
Happy to have added these to my garden. They arrived beautiful and healthy. They are doing great.
Great shade plants
This was the best plant wrapping I have ever received. The plants were healthy and beautiful. I will definitely order from this site again. You can’t go wrong.
They are all settled in separate garden areas. Because we are at the season’s end I will look forward to next years blooms.
Planted 8 interspersed in Pen Sedge and above black eyed susan on a slope. Look great with great effect
Lovely heathy plant that is a decent size for mail order.
I am very pleased!
