Pink Profusion Bowman's Root is an upright woody native perennial with a tidy mounding habit and serrated olive green foliage that turns bright maroon to coppery-burgundy in fall. Wiry red spires holding abundant airy clusters of delicate star-like pale pink flowers go up from late spring into summer. The attractive red calyces persist after the petals drop. Prefers part sun and loamy well-drained soils. Heat, humidity, and drought tolerant.
Syn. with Gillenia trifoliata.
