Flowering
From Mid Summer TO Late Autumn
Most species of Persicaria are in flower through the summer months between mid summer and late autumn.
Planting Outdoors spring
From Early Spring TO Mid Spring
Plant out in the garden in full sun or partial shade. Whilst they prefer moist soil most will tolerate dry conditions but won't spread so much.
Planting Outdoors autumn
From Mid Autumn TO Late Autumn
Plant out in the garden in full sun or partial shade. Whilst they prefer moist soil most will tolerate dry conditions but won't spread so much.
Propagation by Division
From Late Autumn TO Late Autumn
Propagate by division. Dig up and replant healthy sections every 2 or 3 years to keep in check and avoid the centres of clumps dying out.
