Use it in the middle or front of the planting, and contrast it with companions that have bold foliage or a dense habit.

Water deeply, regularly in first growing season to establish root system; once established, reduce frequency. May go dormant under drought conditions. For a tidy appearance, remove old, faded foliage before new leaves emerge. Space 2 to 3 ft. apart. |
