morjoanneDescription
This was planted several years ago and is expanding very slowly so I have tried to increase it by dividing. The flower is amazing.

This is an area of Riverside Park that was very compacted and bare aside from elm tree seedlings in 1992. We cleared away the pencil-thin trees and the next year there was a crop of this plant, which is now propagating itself.
