Young self seeded plants are easy to remove. Plants grow to approximately 60cm in height. 
 
Excellent cut flower.  Excellent cut flower. Harvest flowers and condition for at least two hours in cool water before using. Flowers will last between 7 and 14 days. Note, the flowers of Physostegia are highly sensitive to ethylene.
 
Seeds need a cold spell to break dormancy, if you live in a warmer area then store the seeds in the fridge for a minimum of 4 weeks before sowing.  Sow seeds in a light potting mix and keep damp not wet.  Plant out into the garden once the plants are around 10m in height and after the last frost.
