$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Pulsatilla vulgaris is a lovely herbaceous perennial native to Europe, forming a low, compact clump of finely dissected, silvery-green foliage in early spring. The leaves are deeply divided and covered in fine, silky hairs, giving them a soft, fuzzy appearance. As the weather warms, it produces stunning bell-shaped flowers in shades of deep purple to violet, and occasionally white, each with a cluster of golden yellow stamens. This resilient plant, often found in rocky or sandy grasslands, is drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and features fluffy seed heads that persist into summer, adding interesting texture to the garden.
