Pasque Flower
My first Pasque flower. I bought it last spring and was excited to see it survive the winter. It brought much needed color to my garden early this spring. I can't wait for it to spread a little so I can divide it. While researching a little about this flower, I discovered another name for it is Easter Flower. Pasque being an old French word for Easter. Interesting little tidbit. Meanwhile, the hellibore I purchased at the same time last year did not bloom this year. I was very disappointed. It has some healthy new growth on it, but no flowers. Maybe next year.

ReplyDeleteI just love the Pasque Flowers. I have a purple one and the Red Clock like yours. I love the red one. I have been looking for a white one now. I was thinking about trying to start more from seeds but I will have to check into that some more since my seed starting is hit and miss. Thanks for dropping by and you have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colour, I've seen these flowers before but in a more subtle shade. This one would really catch some attention in the garden.
ReplyDeleteOh my goddess Bonnie -- your cat looks just like mine! And Pasque flowers are indeed the most delicate and precious flowers of all. So beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
