Hello Anelle,
I carry Bowman's Root. Nice plant for the edge of the woods situation. Nice
white to light pink blooms on wiry stems above textured and cut foliage. The
leaves turn a nice color for late summer before it goes dormant. Mine gets about 3
feet high when in bloom. Easy to grow and has no special needs other than half way
decent soil and some moisture. I do mulch mine with chopped leaves in the fall.
