Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A very rare in cultivation (try googling it) miniature Trollius from Yunnan and Sichuan. This makes a tidy little mound of green foliage from which arises small yellow flowers on short stems of just a few inches. It has the cute thing working big time. Great for a moist rock garden.
