Notes/Description:
Native, robust, self-sowing perennial herb about 3-8' tall, from a woody base and usually clumped. Well suited for moist and/or shady prarie and meadow restorations and rehabilitations, wetland and pond edges, upland buffers along lakes and streams, rain gardens with fine soils and naturalized perennial gardens. A low-maintenance plant that establishes easily by seed, crowding out weeds by minimal help.
