Neat tufts of grasslike foliage with bright flower globes on wiry stems. Flowers in the late spring, excellent for the front of a border. Does well and is colorful almost anywhere. Consistently evergreen in southern gardens; semi-evergreen in the north.

Plant Care:
Shear off all old flowers when blooming is done for attractive little clumps all year long. Any winter kill can be teased out in spring if needed. Does best in poor dry soil. Can be divided in spring by splitting clump with a spade. However, it will be slow to recover and these plants usually prefer to be left undisturbed. May benefit from loose winter mulch for protection. Fertilizer is usually not necessary.
