It is a valuable pollinator plant, attracting bees, butterflies, and other insects. The conservation status of this species has not been formally evaluated by the IUCN. Its widespread cultivation and naturalization across temperate regions worldwide make it a familiar component of gardens and agricultural landscapes. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
