Growing Tips for Baptisia ''Musical Duet''

Grows best in full sun although it tolerates light shade. If grown in too much shade, Baptisia may need staking. It thrives in poor to average, well-drained soil and becomes moderately drought tolerant once established. This long-lived native may take a few seasons to settle in, so avoid disturbing established clumps.
