Pulsatilla vulgaris Pearl Bells


Pasque-flower

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.450.390


(='Perlen Glocke') This spring-flowering favourite produces crocus-like flowers covered in soft down, with pearly soft-pink petals. The attractive seed heads that follow are soft feathery tufts or plumes. Scatter these around, to encourage self-seeding to occur. A wonderful rock garden plant, with a long season of interest. Also useful for border edging or wildflower meadows, and plants will often naturalize in a delightful way. Drought tolerant, once established. Plants may be divided in early fall, if desired. Cut back in late fall.
