Design Ideas
Fabulous planted along a drive or walkway. Also works well grouped as informal, low hedges to separate different parts of the garden. Mass into a sea of color that functions much like groundcover. Strap-leafed form and flowers on long wand-like stems add relief between dwarf shrubs. Spot into perennial borders as individuals or small clusters, or at the border's edge to add texture and form.

Add more warmth to the red of this Daylily with Paprika Common Yarrow (Achillea millefolium 'Paprika'), then cool it down with the lavender-blue of Benenden Blue Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis 'Benenden Blue') or Chaste Tree (Vitex agnus-castus).
Care Instructions
Thrives in organically rich loam; adapts to most soil types, provided they are well-drained. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency, once established. Remove old foliage and spent blooms for a neat appearance and to promote continued bloom.
