Zion’s many springs and seeps also provide micro-habitats where temperatures are cooler and water is available year-round. Throughout the summer, on the Weeping Rock, Emerald Pools, and Riverside Walk trails, you may see “hanging gardens” where flowers like shooting star (Dodecatheon pulchellum), golden columbine (Aquilegia chrysantha), and scarlet lobelia (Lobelia cardinalis) cling tenaciously to the cliff walls.
This portrait showcases the Zion Shooting Star (Dodecatheon pulchellum), a delicate plant in the Primrose family. It's part of the vibrant mix in Zion's hanging gardens and is known for its early but brief blooming season. The large leaves make it identifiable even when not in bloom. The Shooting Star plant is not just a visual spectacle but also holds a traditional significance. Native Americans used similar species of this plant for medicinal purposes, like treating sore eyes with a cooled infusion of its leaves or roots. The plant's habitat ranges from coastal prairies to mountain meadows, making it a versatile species.
