This is NOT a native Norther American plant. Two small clumps were taken from another garden three years ago. In some areas it is considered an invasive plant. It is kept contained by digging a small trench around the bed. The plant requires almost no care. I do water it sometimes during dry spells. The plant makes a good filler for an empty space. The vegetation stays green all summer, and it is cut to the ground in the fall.
