Because of the taproot, it doesn't transplant well unless I choose very small ones. In my area it attracts all kinds of pollinators, but not so much regular honey bees. I can't be sure, but I believe it is a biennial. Currently it is growing in close quarters alongside echinacea, spiderwort, purple sage, lamb's ear, and Siberian iris. No evidence of allelopathy.
