Description
 
Oddity from the high alpine meadows of Tibet, China, Nepal and Bhutan which we have grown for a number of years.  A tap-rooted species making clumps of narrow green leaves from which stems up to 2' arise in summer each bearing a single curious round head of closely packed small white flowers.  A conversation starter for sure.  This should be good to zone 5 given where it grows.
