A cheerful, easy to grow, and long-lived, but hard to find introduction from Mt. Cuba Center in Wilmington, DE. Bright, lavender-pink up facing flowers, 1” in diameter appear with the earliest of spring wildflowers. The 6” high, Columbine-like foliage fades into dormancy by mid-summer. Prefers a bright shade location in moist, but well-drained soils. Introduced in 2007, but rare in the trade.
