Persicaria Amplexicaulis Dark Red has a strong character in the perennial border. The foliage is a strong upright habit with blood red flowers, which will flower for most of the summer. It can, if left unmanaged encroach on other plants. It can be kept in check with a chop around mid spring. It can be easily split and divided once it gets larger.
