Growing & Maintenance Tips

Plants will spread quickly and form a large patch when grown in full sun or partial shade. Clumps can be easily divided in the spring and are a choice for a waterside or moist garden.

Notes

Not yet officially listed as invasive, this plant is not native to North America, and is definitely aggressive. For similar effects, considerVeronicastrum virginicumor some of the white-flowering cultivars ofClethra alnifolia.
