Planting and Growing
Dwarf Globeflower will grow to be about 8 inches tall at maturity extending to 12 inches tall with the flowers | with a spread of 8 inches. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant | individual plants should be spaced approximately 6 inches apart. It grows at a medium rate | and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years. As an herbaceous perennial | this plant will usually die back to the crown each winter | and will regrow from the base each spring. Be careful not to disturb the crown in late winter when it may not be readily seen!
This plant does best in partial shade to shade. It prefers to grow in average to moist conditions | and shouldn't be allowed to dry out. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. Consider applying a thick mulch around the root zone in both summer and winter to conserve soil moisture and protect it in exposed locations or colder microclimates.
