Flowers last throughout the summer right into autumn.  Large dark green leaves, height 1.2m, spread 1.5m, hardy, deciduous.  Thrives in all soils except waterlogged, in most sunny/part shaded positions, will tolerate southerly wind and coastal situations, avoid cold northerly winds.  Excellent choice for many situations including cottage, pairie or formal gardens and will make a strong addition to a shrub border.
