Wordless Wednesday
This entry was posted in Country Gardening, My Photos and tagged Double Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis forma Multiplex), nature photography, spring flowers, wildflowers, Wordless Wednesday. Bookmark the permalink.
So pretty they are. The foliage is attractive as well.
Thank you, Sandy!
Welcome, Eliza.
Love your posts Eliza 🌸
Thank you very much, Karen!
These are very attractive looking flowers.
Thank you, Anne. 🙂
Such beautiful flowers. Are they native to America?
Thank you, yes, the single version is a native wildflower in the eastern US. The double is a sterile mutation. It can only be propagated by root cuttings.
Ah! Who needs a wordless Wednesday when a picture speaks a thousand words 🌼🌼🌼
🙂 Thank you, Isha!
What beautifully formed flowers. So perfect and unblemished. 🙂
They last longer than the singles, I really like this form.
These are lovely
Thank you, Sheree!
Pretty
Thank you, Karina!
Strange name for such a lovely flower!
The name refers to the root, which bleeds a bright reddish orange that stains the skin. Native peoples used it as a dye for baskets and weavings.
They’re something special!
Indeed, they are, thanks, Chris!
‘Exquisite’ says it all. x
Thank you, Joy!
Well photographed, as always
Thank you, Derrick!
One word – stunning.
Thank you, Judy!
Beautiful shot! I read up on them. They are very interesting plants,
Thank you, Hien! It is a rare gem. 🙂
Oooo…….exquisite! Looks like some exotic lotus.
Thanks, it does! 🙂 It’s been lovely to see it this past week.
Looks like a Water-lily in the woods. So pure…I wonder which insects & butterflies enjoy their pollen/nectar?
It is sterile, so perhaps none do, but I have a big stand of the regular native, so I guess pollinators visit those. And ants spread their seeds everywhere. 🙂
Beautiful. So pristine and delicate and they seem to be doing well for you!
Yes, I found a spot at the edge of the woods where they seem to be happy. Thanks, Frank!
I saw a photo of these on another blog, and assumed they were an aberration, like some of the doubles I see in the wild. Obviously, not — the form has its own name. They’re quite beautiful.
Thank you, yes, they are rare, but such a treat.
Beautiful flowers Eliza! Enjoyed seeing them.
Thank you, Reed!
What a wonderful picture! I love these plants but rarely see them. The flowers have a very grand quality, even though they are small.
Thank you, Susan. Their flowering is an event here! 🙂
Stunning, indeed! I have never seen a double bloodroot.
Thank you, Laurie! They are pretty unusual.
A beautiful flower Eliza, I’ve never seen these before either xxx
Thank you, Xenia!
Beautiful! ❤
Thank you, Julie! x
Reblogged this on Purplerays.
Thank you for reblogging!
They are stunning!
Thank you, Cindy!
What a gorgeous thing that is!
I must agree – it has been such a pleasure, the last bloom shattered today.
Heh, what a great name! 🙂
🙂 Glad you liked it!
Lovely!
Thank you, Carol!
Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you, Sylvia.
Almost impossibly beautiful.
Thank you, Loree. I agree, it is a treasure.
These flowers are lovely. They seem to be imitating fabric flowers 😊
Thanks, Carol. Yes, they are almost too perfect, right? 😉
I’ve only seen doubles one other time in the Acton Arboretum. These are beauties. Lucky you, Eliza!
Thank you, Steve. They aren’t all that common as they are sterile and can only be propagated by root cuttings. I was lucky to get this one.
Lovely
Thank you, Fi!
Gorgeous! Are these blooming now?
Thank you, Maria. They are just about finished for the season, only lasting a week or so. Glorious while they do!
So beautiful, Eliza. They remind me of Peonies. Are these flowers in your gardens or are they considered wild?
Thank you, Amy. They are a sterile mutation of the wild species. I bought this one a few years ago and it is in my shade garden next to my waterfall. A delight every time we pass by!
Beautiful flower which I now come to know come to know of.
Thank you, Maria. It is a lovely one, for sure.
Beautiful flowers! I like the petal structure and they are so white.
Thank you, Denise. Surprisingly, these lasted much longer than the singles, probably because they don’t set seed.
