Sanguinaria canadensis 'Venus' formerly “Pink Form”
In earliest spring, the buds of this native shade-loving Bloodroot variant emerge a deep pink. The showy wide-petaled flowers open light pink, and fade to shell pink. Dark pink stems on both leaves and flowers. The reverse sides of the petals remain a darker pink, repeatedly displaying their rich pink blush when they close each evening. Gradually spreads by thick fleshy rhizomes, 2-6" per year, to form a large colony over time.
