Belonging to the distinguished Saxifragaceae family, this 2-3 foot tall gem is clothed in fern-like foliage, providing an elegant canvas to the vibrant plumes of star-shaped flowers that gracefully dance in colors from the purest white to various voluptuous shades of pink, red, and purple. Known for their resilient demeanor, these magnificent plants appreciate regular watering and thrive remarkably in the sanctuary of partly shady to completely shaded locations.
