A name like star chickweed can strike fear in the hearts of gardeners but our native Stellaria pubera knows how to behave. It distinguishes itself from its troublesome relatives by larger, showier blooms and a perennial habit. Star chickweed does well in a woodland garden and is far more likely to spread by slowly creeping along the ground than by seeding in. This diminutive groundcover is common in the nearby woods, often found blooming in the company of green-and-gold, windflower, and dwarf crested iris. The genus Stellaria supports up to 15 lepidoptera species
