âś… Do:
Plant along pond edges, wet ditches, or water gardens.
Divide rhizomes every few years to maintain healthy flowering.
Use as ornamental plant, erosion control, or water filtration.
Provide full sun for best flowering.
❌ Don’t:
Don’t let plants overcrowd — aggressive spread can take over water features.
Don’t plant in dry soil — needs constant moisture.
Don’t leave dead or decaying leaves — promotes disease.
Don’t allow stagnant or polluted water — can cause crown rot.
