detailed seed-starting info below

Glossy leaves stay in low rosettes, with flowers rising above. Good for a partly shaded rock garden. Native to the Carpathian mountains.
Thus far, my two attempts to grow this have come to naught. A third attempt is underway.

This plant used to grow in our garden, but it slipped away...
