The plant clumps may need to be thinned after several years if they get too crowded. This plant grows well in full sun to part shade and will tolerate dry soil and prefers neutral to alkaline soils.

Dappled shade and afternoon shade are best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, don't plant Annabelle in full shade positions.
