    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A tough, hardy, clumping perennial, for full sun. One of the easiest plants to grow. Mounds of narrow, spotted, red to green leaves produce, throughout the warmer months, tall wands of lipstick pink, butterfly shaped flowers that sway in the slightest breeze. After flowering, or any time it's in need of a clean up, cut back to ground level. It will quickly regrow. An extremely tough plant tolerating all sorts of physical abuse (e.g. being driven over, mowed, poisoned etc.) as well as complete summer dryness. Generally self seeds where happy, so cut back before seed fall if you find this undesirable.
