HOW TO GROW
Sowing: Direct sow either in late fall or early spring. Press the seed into the surface of the soil, compacting the soil very firmly. For spring planting, mix the seeds with moist sand and store in the refrigerator for 60 days before planting. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination.
Growing: Water seedlings regularly until they become established. This plant thrives in moist or wet soil, even shallow standing water and seasonal flooding. It also adapts well to a variety of soil types including clay, though it grows best in rich soil. It spreads by rhizomes and reseeding to form a natural colony. It makes an excellent choice for erosion control, as well as being popular for wetland restoration and as an ornamental plant. This plant provides cover and forage for small birds and other wildlife.
Seed Saving: At the end of the season, the seed heads will begin to ripen and turn color. Strip the seed from the stem, and separate the seed from the plant material. Store the seed in a cool, dry place.
