Blooming in the high period for herbaceous borders, it adds a scarlet extravaganza to sunny spots, attracting pollinators with its large, showy petals.

When planting 'Red Rumble' add plenty of well-rotted manure or garden compost to the soil prior to planting. Apply mulch around the base of the plants to protect the roots from cold temperatures. Cut back after flowering to encourage a second flush later in the summer. Lift and divide large clumps in autumn.
