This north American species of Shooting Star is very hardy, with stately umbels of pink-purple, reflexed flowers in tall spires held above the light green leaves. The leaves look a bit weedy, so take care if non-gardeners weed your plot! Dodecatheons are best grown in a moist soil and are good in woodland conditions. This plant is late summer dormant in August or September, re-emerging in early spring. Hardiness rating H5. Organically grown in peat free compost. Pot size 1 litre.
