Cultivation:
Plant Yellow Archangel in partial to full shade in moist, well drained soil.
Although preferring fertile well drained soil, it adapts
to most soil types well. Some say that "Yellow
Archangel" is somewhat invasive. This small colorful
groundcover also grows well in containers.
Propagation:
Seed can be started in a cold frame or greenhouse and moved
outdoors to a shady location after danger of frost has passed. For
much quicker growth purchase pre-started plants at your local
Garden Center.
Once Yellow Archangel becomes established plants can be divided in spring or
fall.
