Fellow listmates:
how crucial is it for the above-named perennial to get a lot of moisture?
Everywhere I've read about this plant it claims that it needs a constantly
moist soil; however, I've seen it paired with plants that do pretty darn
well in my dry yard in amended clay soil (like malvas and boltonias).
Does anyone have success with this plant in otherwise less-than-idea
conditions? I'm planning on putting this in partial sun (it gets sun all
day up to 5:00 pm). What do you have it paired with? Does it last long in
bloom? Is it a good cut flower? (I see visions of this with roses...)
