This captivating perennial offers stunning, deep red flower spikes that rise above finely textured, fern-like foliage, bringing drama and depth to garden spaces from summer through autumn. The airy, upright flower heads gently sway with the breeze, adding graceful movement and architectural interest. Growing to around 90 cm tall and spreading about 70 cm wide, it fits well in borders, wildflower gardens, and mixed perennial beds. Preferring full sun to part shade and well-drained soil, it is valued for its resilience and low-maintenance nature. This plant attracts a variety of pollinators, including bees and butterflies, supporting a healthy and vibrant garden ecosystem. Its bold color and unique form create a striking contrast when paired with softer, more delicate plants, making it a versatile choice for adding texture and richness.
