$6.99
This easy-to-grow western native perennial is a relative of Tiarella (foam flower) and Mitella diphylla (Bishop’s Cap), which are native to the eastern USA.
One advantage of this modest perennial is that it grows very well in dry shade and is a good groundcover! It grows in a tuft of heart-shaped, medium green leaves and upright stems with many small cup-shaped flowers. The flowers have very nice details, with a pink-red edge and delightful scent. The leaves stay at the ground and are most likely evergreen. The seeds are very tiny, and it will self-seed to form nice ground covering mats.
Great, adaptable plant for shade and half shade gardens, woodland gardens, north slopes, ground cover in bigger areas, and naturalizing. Suitable for public and private spaces.
Good companions can be any of the native woodland perennials like Aquilegia canadensis, Geranium maculatum, Heuchera richardsonii and others, Phlox divaricata, Polemonium reptans, Stylophorum diphyllum, wodland species of Carex, and native ferns. From non-natives, choose Bergenia, Helleborus, Hosta, Polygonatum, Primula etc.
It’s also called alum root.
Blooming Time: May - July
Size: the total height with flowering stems is 24’’-32’’ high x 10” wide
USDA Zones: 4 to 7
Culture: very adaptable to half shade, shade, dappled shade (full sun in cooler areas)
Moisture Needs: medium, medium- dry, dry, very adaptable and drought tolerant
Origin: native wildflower to Western North America – Alaska, California, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington; grows under the canopy of mature trees, in moist forests, along streams and rocky slopes.
Deer/Rabbit Resistant: yes / yes
Attracts Butterflies or Pollinators: native bees and honey bees
Attracts Hummingbirds: no
Pot Size: 3.5" x 4" perennial pot (1.22 pt/580 ml)

Tellima Fring Cup
Love this plant. Beautiful leaves that are slightly hairy, interesting and the deer avoid. Easy to grow even in dry shade. Flowers make an pretty filler for cut floral arrangments. I think this is my 3rd order. I don't like to purchase shipped live plants but this company does it right. Every order, including this one, come so well packaged. Plants are very healthy, soil is still slightly moist and even the leaves minor stress resolved quickly after unpacking. Thanks for the great plants!

US Perennials and Tellima
First of all, the Tellima was not easy to find. US had them—. These were good sized, healthy plants — expertly packed and they sent an extra plant. I could not be more pleased. Fast ship too.
