Obedient plant is a robust and undemanding perennial. It thrives best in nutrient-rich soils that are capable of holding moisture well. Don't be afraid to plant it even in heavier clay soil, which it handles with ease. Choose a primarily sunny location, where it will bloom most abundantly, but it will also tolerate partial shade. In too much shade, however, it may stretch towards the light and the stems may tend to lodge. When planting, maintain a spacing of at least 50 cm, as the plant forms lush clumps that expand in width over time.
Given that the obedient plant naturally grows in moister habitats, it is crucial to ensure it gets plenty of water – dry and sandy locations are not suitable for it. If you plan to grow it in a pot on a terrace, it is possible, but be prepared for the necessity of very frequent watering. In containers, the substrate dries out much faster than in the open ground, and the obedient plant reacts to drought by wilting its leaves. For growing in containers, use a nutritious substrate ideally mixed with a little clay or hydrogel for better water retention.
One of the great advantages of this plant is its enormous vitality and resilience. It practically does not suffer from diseases and pests avoid it, making it an ideal plant for ecological and maintenance-free gardens. However, it has a natural tendency to spread into the surroundings via underground rhizomes, so if you want to keep it in a precisely defined place, it is advisable to use a root barrier when planting (for example, a sunken plastic edging). If the clump grows too large, simply chop off the edge parts with a spade in the spring or autumn. In this way, you can easily rejuvenate the plant and give away the acquired divisions or plant them in another moist place in the garden.
Flowering takes place in late summer, from August to October, thereby livening up the garden at a time when many other summer perennials have already finished blooming. Its flowers are additionally edible, so you can safely use them as an unconventional decoration for salads or desserts. For the winter, there is no need to specially protect the plant; it is extremely frost-resistant even in our coldest regions. We recommend leaving the dry stems on the flower bed throughout the winter – not only do they protect the center of the plant (the crown), but they look very decorative frosted or snow-covered in the winter garden and provide shelter for small insects. The spring cleanup of the flower bed then consists of simply cutting all above-ground parts just above the ground before the new leaves sprout.
