Sunny rays of petals show flashes of their red undersides, creating a unique look. The sturdy, compact form provides charming summer color for a cottage, wildlife, or cutting garden, or a small urban border. Herbaceous perennial. Excellent as a border plant or even in containers.
Provide organically rich, moist but well-drained soil. Prefers regular moisture, even tolerating wet soils; does not tolerate dry soils. Fertilize only lightly. Remove spent flowers to encourage continued bloom. Hard prune by 1/2 after bloom period.
