Where to plant Aruncus
Aruncus are best planted in a poorly drained soil of clay or loam within an acidic, alkaline or neutral PH balance. They are best positioned in an area of full sun or part shade. Aruncus look particularly attractive in flower beds and borders within cottage and informal garden settings.
How to plant Aruncus
Ensure that the planting area retains moisture and drains water at a slow rare. Aruncus will spread out and so it is vital to determine an appropriate site that will allow plenty of space for its mature height and spread.
How to care for Aruncus
Cut back during summer when it starts to look unkempt and untidy to create a pleasing shape and to avoid detriment to companion plants. Soil should be kept moist throughout the growing season, especially during periods of dry weather.
How to propagate Aruncus
It is possible to propagate Aruncus by seed sown in spring or autumn or by division in spring.
