Description
What beautiful wildflowers! The shooting star plant is native to North American valleys and mountains, wetlands, prairie gardens and especially in oak forests. A member of the primrose family, they bloom from May to June and can be grown in your garden but need bees to pollinate. Also there will be no flowers the first year, the best by the third year.

It's a delight to find my shooting stars in Contemporary Florals. These seem so ancient, so primitive, so private from gardens or vases....so upside down wild....secretive and one with mystery and nature. I think that's why I left them so bare and unfinished....having their own spring ballet.
