This Russian native is extremely cold hardy and is an excellent choice for northern gardeners. Shear back to the ground every spring to make way for the new year's growth. Plant it with mid-spring blooming daffodils and tulips and blue groundcover Veronica (Speedwell). Suitable to elevations up to 5200 feet. Introduced by Plant Select® – waterwise, garden-tested plants proven to thrive in the high plains and intermountain west for more beauty, with less work.
