Culture Notes
Since the beautiful blooms of this plant nod, planting on a slope will make it easier to appreciate them. Do not let the soil get too wet, or rotting may occur. The seed heads do not need to be removed, because they form interesting plumes and do not rob the plant of its vitality. Division can be made to the tuber in fall or early spring. This plant does self seed easily and forms large colonies. Plants serve as butterfly nectar sources.
