Planting and Growing Information
Super Sprite performs best in fertile, consistently moist, well-drained soils with partial to full shade exposure. In cooler northern regions, it can tolerate morning sun if adequate moisture is maintained. Plant bare roots in spring, spacing 18-24 inches apart for optimal development. This early-season bloomer produces its signature pink plumes in early summer, with the attractive foliage providing continued interest throughout the growing season. Regular watering is essential, especially during establishment and dry periods.
