It can be used for cut flowers, erosion control in moist meadows, or as part of a mass planting. Grows up to 5.5' tall, often shorter. Give it full sun to part shade. It will grow in a variety of soil types, provided the soil does not dry out. Tolerates deer and drought, and naturalizes readily. This hardy species is well suited for cottage gardens, rain gardens, perennial borders, and wetlands.

This hardy species is indigenous to marshes, shores, swamps, bogs, wet meadows, damp thickets, and open woodlands. ts flowers attract butterflies, skippers, and songbirds.
