Sanguineria canadensis - Bloodroot, 1 Pack
Sanguinaria canadensis
Sanguinaria canadensis, commonly known as Bloodroot, is a charming spring ephemeral native to woodlands across North America. Emerging from a bright orange-red rhizome, it produces delicate white flowers—resembling a pincushion of pure snow—typically wrapped by a scalloped basal leaf that unfurls as the bloom opens. These early-season blossoms open in sunlight and close at night, offering fleeting yet exquisite garden moments. Soon after, the foliage expands into lush, blue-green leaves before the plant retreats underground for summer
