As an herbaceous perennial, this plant will usually die back to the crown each winter, and will regrow from the base each spring. Be careful not to disturb the crown in late winter when it may not be readily seen!

It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. This species is not originally from North America. It can be propagated by division.
