Persicaria amplexicaulis Taurus
Beautiful herbaceous perennial with clumping green leathery leaves with a white stripe down the leaf centre. Foliage turns a lovely red/orange in Autumn. Gorgeous crimson flower spikes appearing from mid-Summer through to mid-Autumn. Commonly known as Mountain Fleece.

Mature Height: 60-90cm
Mature Width:  90-120cm

Position: Full Sun / Part Shade

Water Zone: 2 (for pond edges or bog areas)

Landscape Uses: Bog Garden, Courtyard, Screening, Hedging, Cottage Garden, Container / Pot, Attracting Birds & Bees

Preferred Soil Type: Moist, Well Drained. We recommend using Grow Better Premium Potting Mix if potted. If adding plants to a pond that contains fish, we recommend using garden soil or potting mix with no added fertilisers. Then add a layer of pebbles to keep the soil from washing away.

Ongoing Care: Keep moist during very dry periods. Deadhead spent flowers. Prune hard once flowering ends. Liquid feed and mulch if in garden or pot. Slow-release fertiliser annually or as needed. We recommend Campbells Rustica Plus Fertiliser. Fertilisers not generally needed if plant is in a pond that contains live fish.

Sometimes the actual plant for sale is shown, however, as we have hundreds of plants for sale, this is not always possible.
