This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.

  • Position: Full sun or partial shade
  • Soil: Moderately fertile, moist, well-drained soil
  • Rate of growth: Fast
  • Flowering period: June to August
  • Hardiness: Fully hardy


Trifoliate blue-green leaves covered in soft hairs, offer a beautiful contrast for the conical clusters of magenta-red flowers, which open from silvery buds in summer. Attractive to beneficial insects including butterflies and bees, it is wonderful in naturalised planting styles.


  • Garden care:
    T. rubens prefers to grow in moist, but well-drained soil with a neutral pH in a sunny soil. Cut back spent blooms after flowering to encourage a second flush.
