Provide average, moist but well-drained soil; best in moderately alkaline soils. Benefits from afternoon shade in hotter summer regions. Prefers moist or wet conditions, but once established will tolerate slightly drier soils. Spreads by rhizomes; grow in a contained area and promptly remove spent blooms to prevent unwanted spread.
