Hepatica - Liverleaf |
Hepatica also called Liverleaf, these two are two different species I rescued many years ago. One is probably Hepatica acutiloba, the other Hepatica americana. The white one above is larger and has slightly different leaves than the blue one. The white one is growing in a gallon pot with a wild Heuchera, where it has been for at least 7 years and in the old garden for about 10 years, never found a place to plant it. The blue one has been in the ground here about 10 years, it was in my old garden for about 13 years. They are great plants growing in deep shade and very drought tolerant. (The blue color is actually accurate and that bright) |
