The sturdy stems are clothed in finely divided, fern-like leaves that release a pleasant herbal scent when crushed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt begins its generous display in mid-summer and continues well into autumn, providing a perfect landing platform for bees, hoverflies, and butterflies. It is supremely adapted to hot, dry conditions, making it an ideal candidate for gravel gardens, coastal sites, or any free-draining border where other perennials might flag in the summer heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBarnsdale tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e To keep the plant looking fresh and to encourage a second flush of those wonderful terracotta heads, cut the faded flower stems right back to the lower foliage as soon as they start to turn brown.
