How to Care for the Plant
Fertilizer
Add compost to the soil for nutrients. Applying garden mulch will not only conserve moisture in the soil but also help the plant to overwinter (mulch is especially helpful in zone 5).
Sunlight
During a hot spell in the summer, some of the plant's leaves are likely to become scorched if the plant is grown in full sun. It may recover when cooler temperatures return, but it is simply easier to grow the plant in shade.
Soil
They like wet (but well-drained) soil, making it easiest to treat them as shade plants (where moisture will evaporate less quickly).
