One of the oldest plants still in cultivation.
This easy-care woodland native has been a favourite for generations! Long, arching racemes drip with puffy, heart-shaped, pink flowers with dainty, white tears. The compelling flowers and attractive, fernlike foliage appear in late spring, drawing attention away from spent bulb foliage in the landscape.
