Yellow Loosestrife Lysmachia Punctata ‘Alexander’ 1 Gal

Easily grown in moist, humusy, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. Plants prefer some part afternoon shade. Plants will spread by rhizomes and are self-seeding in optimum growing conditions to form large colonies. Plants tend to be less aggressive if grown in lean, somewhat dry soils, however best performance is in moist fertile soils.

‘Alexander’ is a patented cultivar that only occasionally produces seed, but will not come true from seed. Although it will spread by rhizomes to form colonies, it is much less aggressive in that regard than the species. Variegated foliage tends to brown at the edges when grown in soil that is too dry.
