Re: Bloodroot... WOW

Mine are less than two inches but they are young. I checked through my
slides and found a picture of the mother colony, surprisingly in full sun
with flowers 2.25" wide. I had used a toonie (CAN$2) coin as  a size
indicator.

 $30US sounds pretty steep. They are always a hot seller at our OVRGS spring
plant sales, but even potted up with two or three blooms only command
$15CAN.

This charming cultivar has quite a gardening  advantage over the single
variety. It holds unto its petals more tenaciously. The petals of the single
variety are shed  with the slightest breeze.
