Eupatorium perfoliatum aka Chapman's Thoroughwort

Even if you don't have a green thumb, you can successfully care for Chapman's Thoroughwort due to its easy-going nature.

Chapman's Thoroughwort should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Chapman's Thoroughwort loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Chapman's Thoroughwort prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

During the wintertime, it's common for Chapman's Thoroughwort to go dormant and their growth may slow down, so waterings should be spaced out more.

Chapman's Thoroughwort is poisonous if ingested. We suggest keeping this plant out of reach if you have children, cats, or dogs in the home.

The Chapman's Thoroughwort is a clump-forming species, with new growth originating from the soil surrounding the main plant.

Chapman's Thoroughwort’s native range is Eastern N. America - Quebec to Manitoba, south to Florida and Texas.
