hederifolium 'Stargazer' Not really for the garden in this season with its usual weather .. i agree, but a nice addition for each alpine house in this season.

Very well named - quite an oddity isn't it!

I think it is sweet. Not sure did you post this before or Tim? The color near the base of the flower (I forget the term for this) is great too. I think when I first saw a post of this one facing up I said it reminded me of a little doe with it's head facing up and it's ears back. Thanks for sharing this with us.

You have a good memory Terry - I posted a photo of that exact same plant a few months ago! I have seedlings of 'stargazer', although I will be very surprised if any of them show this trait. Plants like this have a habit of producing a high proportion of offspring which don't exhibit the one quality you wanted them to show!

Well it's good to see that my memory still kicks in every once in a while Tim. Both your plant and Jonathan's are special.

For me this is more of an oddity than a beauty ... I wonder if the fruit capsules coil or not.
