Description

A most popular perennial cultivar from a showy Eastern and Southern native, this variety has soft, yellow creamy flowers that bloom all summer on compact 1/2'-2' tall plants with fern-like foliage. It should be planted in full sun and average soil. This plant is good with the Campanula in the front of a border, and makes a lovely container plant as well.

Water Saving Tip:

As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.

Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
