Brilliant certainly describes these stunning blooms! Vivid, fiery orange-scarlet blooms reach over 6" across, accented by a jet black eye. Flowers are held above clumps of hairy, deep green foliage, which does tend to die back in late summer. Excellent border plant for the spring garden. Blooms May-June.
Divide in fall every 3-5 years. Dies back after flowering so interplant with other perennials. Rounded form. Prefers a well-drained, loamy soil in full sun.
