"This is a really nice plant and looks especially nice planted with a pink or white phlox. However, they are fussy about drainage and moisture. They need lots of water in the Summer (this is not a Texas Sage!!) and good drainage. Mine were short-lived (only 3 years) and struggled in our hot dry summers. When cut back after the first Spring flush of bloom, they will re-bloom, but not as well as the first flush. The bees and butterflies like this one."
