A spectacular perennial specimen plant.

The eye-catching burgundy-dark stems reach 120-140 cm (up to 180 cm) in height, with dark green foliage forming a bush 45-80 cm in diameter. Bold, deep plum-colored rounded buds open into extraordinary dome-shaped reddish-purple inflorescences that attract butterflies. Blooms from late July through autumn.
This plant requires ample space. Prefers fertile soil with a pH of 5.8-6.8.
Thrives in light partial shade and rich, moist (but not waterlogged) soil.
Hardiness: Zones 4-9 (withstands temperatures down to -34°C).
Soil Requirement: any good garden soil, pH 5.8 - 6.8.
Perfect for garden focal points, naturalistic plantings, and butterfly gardens. Makes a striking addition to mixed borders and waterside plantings.

Seeds exhibit uneven and prolonged germination. Requires double stratification:

  • 4-6 weeks at +5°C (cold period)

  • 4-10 weeks at room temperature (warm period).
    Germination may occur over 2 years.
    Important: seeds are light-sensitive – do not bury deeply in soil!
