Key Characteristics and Growing Information
Appearance: Plants produce low tufts of light green, ferny foliage with large, satiny, bowl-shaped flowers on strong, hairy 18-inch stems.
Growing Conditions: They thrive in full sun to partial shade and prefer normal, loamy, well-drained soil.
Bloom Time: The flowers typically bloom from mid-spring through late summer and are known for their long blooming season.
Special Features: The flowers are lightly fragrant, attract butterflies, are excellent for cut bouquets, and are notably resistant to deer and rabbits due to their milky sap.
Maintenance: They are easy-care plants that self-seed, allowing them to return year after year. Deadheading (removing faded flowers) encourages more blooms.
