Dicentra cucullaria
Dutchman's breeches
A great ephemeral to start the spring, this surprising little plant forms mats in the early season, which grow, bloom and begin dying back before the majority of summer flowers have gone much past groundbreak. Best located in shade to partial shade to maintain the longest bloom.
