European Pasque Flower
European pasqueflower is a small perennial flower that blooms in early spring. It has silvery buds that open to cup-shaped red or purple flowers with a yellow center.
The flowers are a welcome sight, being one of the first blooms to open in early spring.
After the flowers fade, they produce long-lasting silky seedheads that are just as attractive as the flowers. Finely dissected leaves grow in an attractive mound through the rest of the summer.
