Why you need this plant:        Compact, well-branched plants spot dark green foliage and dark purple-black flowers that stay closed for approximately three weeks.

Planting Info:       Plant in a sunny, well-drained location with adequate moisture.  Plant with sufficient organic matter to get the longest bloom time and maximum height.  Excellent in the perennial border and will attract butterflies.  Deadheading may prolong bloom and encourage a second bloom after plant is established.  Plant is mildew resistant but still allow for proper air circulation.  Plant 18-24 inches apart.
