Pea-like flowers; magenta wings with yellow lips.
Availability: In stock

A much underused and unknown native of the Alps, growing along with trumpet gentians in open meadows. The pea-like flowers are composed of magenta wings and bright lemon-yellow lips. Grows as a low, slow spreading shrub with leathery, evergreen foliage, which is much like boxwood except narrower and pointy. Likes the same conditions as trumpet gentians; full sun to light shade in well drained soil. Drought tolerant once established but does like summer moisture.
