I've lusted after this plant for a while, but kept receiving duds instead of seeds in my exchange attempts. Finally, in this year's NARGS exchange, I got two lots of fat viable seeds (for the pink and white varieties), which promptly germinated. Looking forward to the deeply cut umbrella leaves, which in pictures look even more impressive than those of S. palmata (which has lived in our garden for several years now).

In our garden, this plant grows in the following areas: orchard nursery area
