Most are tall perennials with a distribution in temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, reaching south to mountainous areas in Africa.

Propagation:
Division in spring.
Seed sown in March.
Seed just covered and kept at 22°C (72°F) until germination. After germination it should be kept at a lower temperature with plenty of light so the plants won't become lanky.
This plant is a cutting from a plant that grew in my grandfather's garden, so I've called it 'Afi' (granddad). I don't have any information about it's origin or name.
