General Information
Ever-blooming from the early summer on. Very showy banded flowers "blanket" this plant. The ends of the petals have a torn ruffled appearance. Butterflies are drawn to it. Completely carefee. Best in poor loose soils (no clay).

Plant Care
New plantlets can be started by cutting straight down along the side of a clump in midsummer. New plants will form at the severed roots.
