Early Figwort is a flexible grower, accepting a wide range of light and growing conditions, from a forest edge to a clear meadow. It prefers a rich soil and part to full sun. Its blooms are modest and highly unique, specially adapted to attract their pollinators. This is a great example of a flowering plant that is very attractive to pollinators but not very pretty to most humans. Nonetheless, this does wonders to attract many bees and friendly wasps, and puts you in the club of people who are cool enough to grow their flowers for the insects!
