Easy to grow and cultivated for its showy, spring-blooming burgundy flowers and aromatic, fruit-scented leaves, reaching 1-3 feet in maturity. In addition to attracting pollinators, it makes an excellent ground cover under trees and in other shady spots. Does best with a layer of mulch. Its scented foliage makes it unattractive to deer. Plant in part to full shade. Drought tolerant when established.
