Gentiana acaulis - 2011 (Gentiana acaulis)

Alpine, supposedly flowering in late spring. Needs a humusy but well-drained soil in full sun (but with midday shade in areas with hot, dry summers)

I love this but dont see it often. Was going to buy this for under my rhodo and pieris in the acid soil planter, but the cats kept getting in there for you know what! Glad I didnt bother.
