This plant grows best in very moist conditions as its home is the margins of rivers. It is cold-hardy.
It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Type: Hardy Perennial
Hardiness zones: 3-9
Height: 47", 120 cm
Location: Shade or part shade
Seeds per packet: 3
Surface sow as light aids germination. Water the seeds in. Temperature 20-22C (68-72F) for 4 weeks. If they have not germinated after 4 weeks then a cooling period is required. Cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 4 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold stratification period they are then brought back to a cool room (15C, 59F) for them to germinate. Germination can be 30-60 days after the warming period, though some will take longer.
Ornamental use only. These seeds and/or plants are poisonous.
