Bloodroot
Bloodroot is a spring blooming Missouri native wildflower blooming now in rich woods and along streams throughout the State. Only 6-10" tall, it spreads over time into a significant woodland carpet that rolls out as the season begins and fades away as summer arrives.
The curled scalloped leaves push out from under the dried leaves and then relax their sleepy hold releasing sweet simple flowers from their grip. Celebrating their escape from foliaged fingertips, the flowers dance above the leaves briefly (1-2 days) before slipping quietly away without a sound!
