Description
An all seasons beautiful native woodland species with an upright habit and deep, green healthy foliage that will turn bronze-reddish/yellow in the fall. Airy, white/pinkish flowers appear in profusion in June to July – they are very particular with 5 narrow petals and red calyces and petioles; overall, like a ‘flight of butterflies’ :)
A wonderful, fine textured plant for the part-shade and a very good pollinator species. As the common name implies, it has been used medicinally by the Indigenous People (dried & powdered root as a laxative).
