Know before you buy
These plants are specifically curated for partial to full shade environments. While they thrive in dim spaces, they will perform best in areas that receive indirect light rather than complete, pitch-black darkness.
No, this collection is not considered pet-safe. We recommend placing these plants in areas that are inaccessible to curious pets.
Each plant reaches a mature spread of up to 18 inches. To allow them to reach their full potential without overcrowding, you should plan for a total planting area that can accommodate their clumping growth habit.
These perennials are low-maintenance and do not require specialized soil or heavy fertilization. Standard, well-draining potting mix or garden soil is sufficient for their needs.
The collection is designed to provide color during the spring and summer seasons. You can expect a beautiful display of yellow, white, and blue flowers during these months, followed by a period of dormancy.
These plants are versatile enough for both indoor decor and outdoor groundcover. If keeping them indoors, ensure they are placed in a location with moderate humidity and temperatures between 18–24°C (65–75°F).
