Rampion mignonette is a low-maintenance perennial that thrives in well-drained soil with moderate moisture and full sun to partial shade. Water every 7-10 days, reducing frequency in cooler months, and avoid waterlogged conditions. It is a great choice for wildlife gardens, as its small fragrant flowers attract bees and butterflies.
