With a little irrigation, it will also re-bloom within the year. It adapts well to mountains, coastal praries, and on serpentine. With deep fibrous root systems, they provide excellent erosion control on banks and slopes, serve well in wildflower meadows, and are very ornamental. They provide food for wildlife, especially butterlies.
