Gillenia trifoliata

Delicate, pure white, starry flowers flutter like butterflies on tall, red stems with mid-green leaves. An added bonus is the fiery red colour its foliage turns in autumn. A magnet for bees and butterflies.

This captivating plant is much sought after for its ability to bring lightness and elegance to a partially shaded border. It looks equally at home in a naturalistic woodland scheme and cuts well for arrangements. It performs best in rich, neutral to slightly acidic free draining soil, that retains some moisture. It prefers a partially shaded location, but as long as the plant is shaded during the warmest part of the day, it can cope with more sun.
