£6.95
Common Name: Cimicifuga
Flowering Period: August-October
UK Native? No - garden origin
Pot Size: 1.5/2 litre

A beautiful variety with the darkest purple foliage and scented, pink -blushed, white flower spikes during late summer. These are held well clear of the ferny foliage. Superb late season woodlander. Easy, disease and pest resistant. No staking is required.

Best in a moist soil which does not waterlog in winter.

Care and maintenance: Cut back the flower stems after flowering. The foliage collapses after the first frost and can be tidied in autumn or spring. Propagate by division in spring.
