Please excuse the hand but this is my only picture of Gentle Shepherd. I have grown it for 4 years now. It was slow to get established but I note that, this year, it has a dozen scapes with about 6 buds per scape. It is a late bloomer for me and will not be open for another 2 weeks. The scapes are the size of straws but the blooms do not have much substance so they are held up above the foliage fine. The blooms open flat and are usually consistent in color and shape. I like this one for the splash of white in the garden. I have no complaints about foliage which is narrow.
