• Position: full sun or partial shade
• Soil: moderately fertile, humus-rich, well-drained soil
• Rate of growth: average to fast-growing
• Flowering period: August and October
• Hardiness: frost hardy (needs winter protection in cold areas)
  
  On arching, branched stems that rise above the foliage, the large red flowers are freely produced for several months from midsummer. A vigorous perennial, it will quickly spread to form naturalised clumps.
  
  
• Garden care: Resist cutting back the faded foliage until spring, and in the autumn cover the crown of the plant with bracken or bark chips to protect the plant against frost damage. Lift and divide congested colonies in spring, planting the divided sections 8-10cm (3-4in) deep.
