The story

Rose-lavender spikes on a neat clump.

Glossy, crinkled green rosettes send up wiry stems of rose-lavender flower spikes for weeks in summer. It's tidy, doesn't flop, and the bees mob it.

Light

Full sun; tolerates light shade.

Water

Water weekly the first season; established plants handle short dry spells.

Planting

Plant in spring or early fall, crown at soil level.

Long, clean bloom and pollinator traffic from a plant that behaves itself.
