Growing Tips & Maintenance
- Grows best in partial sun or shade in an average to moist, well-drained soil. Full sun tolerant when adequate moisture is provided. Naturally found near woodland edges or moist meadows. Naturalizes by seed and can be aggressive, less so in drier sites. To prevent excessive spreading, remove seed heads in early fall. This species is endangered in Ontario, so consider seeding a vacant lot with the produce.
Note
Additional Notes
- Native to OntarioHigh-value native perennial, listed as Endangered in Ontario. Larval host for several butterflies and moths, including the Wavy-Lined Emerald moth. The long-blooming flowers offer nectar for butterflies, moths, many species of bees, and other insects. In winter, the stalks and seed heads remain standing, providing cover and food for birds. The plant has a strong fragrance, deterring deer, rabbits, groundhogs etc, while attracting predatory insects, helping with natural pest control.
