My favorite. Reviewer below may have overwatered. They take a few years to establish and then wowza! One caution...the taproot is deep so moving them is hard. If left to go to seed they will self plant. I have given many away. They take at least three years to bloom from this baby state. The leaves make wonderful filler and my friends always admire its beauty. I Mostly like the deep purple. Pair with astilbe and it's beautiful in a bouquet. Give it room because it gets big.
