Perennial herb up to 90cm tall.  Grows in clumps and forms a rhizome.  Self sows well.   Likes rich, well drained moist soil.  Full sun - part shade.  Drought sensitive, prefers afternoon shade in hot summers.   Great for container growing, borders.  Excellent addition to pastures/meadow diversity.  Highly nutritious for horses.  Visually stunning when in bloom, was almost wiped out in the UK, making a slow return to fields and wild places.
