Easily grown in average, medium moisture, well-drained soil in part shade to full shade. Tolerant of a wide range of soils, but prefers consistently moist, organically rich ones. Best in part shade conditions. Tolerates full sun in cool summer climates. Tolerates brief periods of drought, but foliage appearance is best if soils are not allowed to dry. Promptly remove spent flowering stems. Plants spread slowly by thick, scaly rhizomes. Foliage damaged by cold winters should be removed in late winter to early spring.
