Cultivation details
We have very little information on this species and do not know if it will be hardy in Britain, though judging by its native range, it should succeed outdoors in many parts of this country. The following notes are based on the genus's general needs. Easily grown in a well-drained circumneutral or slightly alkaline loamy soil, preferring a warm, sunny, dry position[1, 200]. Established plants are drought-tolerant [200]. Plants are longer lived, more hardy and more aromatic when they are grown in a poor dry soil[245]. Members of this genus are rarely, if ever, troubled by browsing deer[233]. Native to Amur, China North-Central, China South-Central, China Southeast, Inner Mongolia, Kamchatka, Khabarovsk, Korea, Manchuria, Primorye, Sakhalin. It has also been introduced into:
Afghanistan, Altay, Assam, Bangladesh, Buryatiya, Central European Russia, Chita, East European Russia, East Himalaya, Gulf States, Iran, Iraq, Irkutsk, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Krasnoyarsk, Kuwait, Lebanon-Syria, Magadan, Mongolia, Nepal, North Caucasus, Oman, Palestine, Qinghai, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Sinai, Tadzhikistan, Tibet, Transcaucasus, Turkmenistan, Tuva, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, West Himalaya, West Siberia, Xinjiang, Yakutiya, Yemen.

Plant Propagation
Seed - surface sow from late winter to early summer in a greenhouse, making sure that the compost does not dry out[200]. When large enough to handle, prick the seedlings out into individual pots and grow them on in the greenhouse for their first winter. Plant out in late spring or early summer. Division in spring or autumn[200]. Basal cuttings in late spring. Harvest the young shoots when about10 - 15cm long, pot up in a lightly shaded position in a greenhouse or cold frame and plant them out when well rooted. Very easy.
