St. John's Wort is a hardy native deciduous shrub that's incredibly easy to grow and low maintenance. In colder climates of USDA growing zones 3 to 8, it may even die back to the ground in harsh winters, but comes back strong each spring. Provide full sun locations and well-drained moist soils for the best results. Mulched beds are best in drier sites and in colder climates. Prune if needed in the very early spring to control shape and size.
