I love it....It blooms in early June here. Flower stalks reach almost 5 foot. The roots become massive, (thick roots). Make sure you plant it where you want it as roots left in the ground will sprout new babies. The leaves are thick and large, puckered, a nice accent after bloom is finished, up to 2 wide. Flowers are white with a light fragrance, similar to baby's breath but further apart. Deer don't bother it!!! Z5. Here's a pix...sorry a center stem got broken in the wind so looks a bit lopsided here, this plant is approx 5 yrs old and almost 4 foot wide now, maybe bigger.
