Gillenia (Porteranthus) trifoliata

Bowman's Root

Bowman's Root is covered with delicate floating masses of white flowers from May to July. The new foliage emerges in bronzy tones turning to green throughout the summer. Although it is happiest in cool moist sites, it tolerates dryer conditions when established. In sunnier locations the fall color can be spectacular maroon-red.  The name debate continues, with some voting for "Porteranthus trifoliatus".
