Lithophragma trifoliatum
Also called Pink Woodland Star
Prairie Woodland Star is a small perennial wildflower in the saxifrage family, native to the western slopes of the Cascades and Sierra Nevada in California, with pink, fragrant flowers. It is grown mainly as a woodland or rock garden plant in cool, partly shaded spots with well-drained soil.
Lithophragma trifoliatum is a variety of flowering plant in the saxifrage family known from the western slope of the Cascade Range and Sierra Nevada in California. It is sometimes considered its own species based on the pink, fragrant flowers, the shape of the hypanthium, and other characters. Others consider it to be a sterile variety of L. parviflorum that likely now persists by vegetative reproduction.
