Why you need this plant:        Small area ground cover or edger for shady areas. Mass in woodland gardens, wild gardens or naturalized areas. Also effective in partially shaded areas of rock gardens and border fronts. Grows well under trees. Edger for paths and walkways.

 
Planting Info:        Keep moist until established.  Propagate by division before flowering time or after the foliage matures.  In late winter cut back the dead foliage to expose the new young growth.  Often recommended as a groundcover but crowding impairs flower production.  Planted on 15-18" centers, it blooms abundantly.
