Core Characteristics
Appearance: Compact mounds of deep green, "cabbage-like" crinkled foliage. Large flower clusters (umbels) are held on sturdy stems 8–10 inches tall.
Color Range: Includes a wide variety of bright hues such as blue, pink, red, white, yellow, and bi-colors like 'SuperNova Fire' (orange-red with yellow centers).
Bloom Time: Early spring is the primary season, though they can also be forced for autumn sales.
Growing & Care Tips
Exposure: Thrives in partial to full shade. They can tolerate more sun in cooler regions if provided with ample moisture.
Soil: Requires rich, humus-dense, and well-drained soil. They prefer "damp woodland" conditions and should not be allowed to dry out completely.
Maintenance:
Deadheading: Remove spent blooms to encourage a longer flowering period.
Division: Plants can be divided every 2–3 years in the fall to maintain vigor.
Pests: Keep an eye out for slugs and snails, which are particularly fond of the lush foliage.
