About the Bugbane

Gorgeous, lacy, purple-black foliage shrouds long and sleek dark stems of beautiful and fragrant, white wand flowers with a touch of pink sheen towering above the garden. Definitely a must-have in the woodland, shade garden.


Care Notes

Plant in moist, nutrient rich soil amended with organic matter like Petitti Planting Mix. Water well after planting; maintain 1” of water, once a week the first year. Use Plant-tone and Iron-tone in spring or at planting; apply Osmocote in summer. Mulch 1-2” to suppress weeds and retain soil moisture. Divide in spring or fall when necessary. Propagation prohibited.
