This plant is one of many that are reproduced with the help of ants. The ants are attracted to a part of the plant's seeds called liposomes. Thus eating and then caring back to their nests. The flowers do not produce nectar, but they do provide pollen. So visits from bees are often, they do not use the flower as food.

Growing this unique perennial is easy. They are planted 2-3 inches deep and softly covered with soil. Watering is required for the first week or so and then only when conditions become very dry. The rain will generally provide enough moisture to sustain the plant quite well.

What Makes Bloodroot Unique?

 

Bloodroot gets its name from the reddish sap found in its underground rhizomes. This native perennial emerges early each spring, often before trees have leafed out, and produces a single flower wrapped in its leaf as it grows. Its blooms are short-lived but incredibly striking, making it one of the most sought-after spring ephemerals.

    Bloodroot

    Dec 16, 2021 Reviewer: Don Grubba

    Purchased 10 of these in 2019 and did not have any arise. Love Bloodroot so I am giving it another try. The corms sent looked very healthy and not desiccated at all. Looking forward to success this time around! Have purchased Celadine poppy, Virginia bluebell, wild iris and foamflower which all have done pretty well. Like the ephemeral collection offered by Native Wildflowers.

    I appreciate you providing indigenous plants such as blood root. My plants are in the ground and I'm looking forward to next Spring. The barefoot plants arrived in great condition.

    Planted 10 in 2019. As of April 2021 none have emerged. I do have some from another source nearby that came up fine. Disappointed as I really like Bloodroot.
