Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.

  • Description

  • Notes

This small perennial grows by rhizomes, creating a little carpet of blue-green, deeply lobes leaves and absolutely bright white flowers 3 to 6 inches tall. Slow-spreading, it makes an attractive woodland groundcover. Generally planted as a bulb in the fall.
