    These little gems showed up last year on my property in N.E. VT- I’d never seen them before. Now I have cultivated them in my garden and they are to be found in several other north facing sites on my property. I love them, they really make a beautiful show on mid-July. They seem to like moist, rich acid soil with a northern exposure.
