What can we say about the splendid double-flowered bloodroot that hasn't already been said? One sight of the perfectly formed balls of pure white held atop the magically unfolding leaves in early spring, and you simply can't resist. After the April flowering, you can enjoy the unique, grey-green, mitt-like foliage of Sanguinaria canadensis 'Multiplex' until it goes dormant in late summer...perfect for a special place in the woodland garden, and no need to worry about unwanted seedlings as this cultivar is sterile! This US native selection, discovered in 1916 by Mr. L. van Webern of Dayton, Ohio, was selected by the UK's RHS as one of the top plants of the last 200 years.
