Landscape Notes: Spiderwort is a foolproof perennial that produces abundant, showy, three petaled flowers. Great for woodland gardens.
Exposure/Culture: Spiderwort prefers full sun to partial shade areas of the landscape. It thrives in moist, well drained soils.
Other Notes: Spiderwort should be trimmed hard in late spring for fresh leaves and more flowers. Its grasslike leaves are nice spilling over a path.
