Care and Watering

Gillenia trifoliata, Bowman’s Root, prefers evenly moist, well-drained soil and shade to partial sun. Water regularly during dry spells, keeping the roots cool but prevent soggy soil. Mulch to conserve moisture and feed lightly every spring for vigorous blooms.

Location and Soil

Plant in a sheltered, partially shaded border with rich, slightly acidic to neutral soil. Ensure good drainage to avoid crown rot and provide room for airy, late-summer sprays of white to pink blooms.

Maintenance and Tips

Deadhead faded flowers to extend bloom. Divide clumps every 3–4 years in spring, and avoid heavy剪やroot disturbance. Supports aren’t usually necessary, but a light stake can help in windy spots.

The ornamental value of Gillenia trifoliata (Bowman's root) lies in the airy, star-shaped white flowers and the fine, red-tinted leaves that add color and movement to borders and prairie plantings. As a spring bloomer and a summer bloomer, it extends the season with delicate flower sprays and elegant lines. It fits perfectly with perennials, garden plants, and prairie combinations for a natural, loose appearance.
