Cultivar Notes -
Aphrodite
An outstanding hybrid selection of a native North American wildflower. This forms a low rosette of rounded leaves, bearing upright stems of bright magenta-pink flowers with a yellow center. Flowers are easily twice the size of other selections, with flared-back petals that give each blossom a star-like or rocket ship appearance.
Growing Notes -
Shooting Star
Prefers a moist to wet site. This will go dormant and disappear by mid summer, so do not disturb the area. Excellent for a bog or waterside planting, but adaptable to rich border conditions or the woodland garden. Excellent cut flower.
