PULSATILLA vulgaris Pasque Flower - z5-8. Short 8" - Plant 12" apart. PAPAGENO - A mixture of creamy white, bright pink, dark red, violet and blue flowers that are fringed and semi-double. As in all the Pasque Flowers, the feathery silver haired seed clusters are very decorative.

General Information:
First to bloom in the spring with deep lavender flowers. Leaves and stems are textured with long silvery hairs. (previously Anemone pulsatilla.)

Pasqueflowers are great for late spring color and interest. This one is supposed to have more than one bloom color on the same plant. As you can see, mine liked purple only this year. I'll see what the future brings! The seed heads open to a fluffy dandelion-like ball adding interest for another 10 days or so.
