In mid-spring, small creamy white, bottlebrush-like flower spikes rise a few inches above the leaves. Most of the season the plant is a crisp, fountain-shaped clump of green and white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIce Dance likes shade and moisture, so use it under trees or in a shady bed rather than in the lavender garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrows in part to full shade, and tolerates more sun with steady moisture; plant in average to moist soil.
