Our plants are sourced from ethical locations, grown by hand with love and treated as organic and natural as possible. We use neem and nematodes to fight natural pests and try to give you the healthiest plant baby possible. 

Growing Suggestions: Perennial / Shrub

• Water regularly. Likes bogs and run off water areas
• This is a short-lived creeping herbaceous perennial
• Hardy to -15 degrees F
• These spread by rhizomes or cuttings, so they come back from their dormant state in the Spring. (I have left mine out over the winter, even in tiny little pots, and they come back in our zone 8 every year.)
• Requires consistently moist soil; do not let dry out between waterings.
• Sun Exposure: Partial to shade
• Harvest flowers and leaves in mid-August into September or when blooms are about to open.
• Mature Height: 12"-36”
• Spacing: 18"
• Hardiness: USDA Zone 3-9

These are living plants and to ensure they arrive alive, make sure to choose priority shipping. When you receive your plant, make sure to bring it in from extreme temperatures and follow recommendations for each plant type.  If your plant arrives dry, water immediately and place in a warm location with filtered light so it can adjust and not be shocked into it's new environment. 

*Although we source high-quality herbs and roots, these are not intended for ingestion. Use at your own risk. Many of our live plants or seeds to grow on your own are toxic to handle or ingest.
