Growing in consociation with Heuchera micrantha, Brodiea coronaria, Camassia leichtlinii and other dry-loving plants just above the shoreline on the limestone bluffs of Roberts Memorial Park. This is an attractive plant that stays in flower over a fairly long period providing there is shade from the heat and sun of the afternoon.
