Eranthis ‘Hyemalis’ will reliably push cups of sunny colour up through earth and grass, and even through a covering of snow during January and February.
This uplifting garden gem is valuable for brave, early pollinators and for bringing a wave of warm colour during the coldest, darkest months of the year. Buttercup-like flowers hug the ground closely, blooming from rosettes of finely cut, lacy foliage.
Plant the tubers in humus-rich, moist, soil, in the shade of mature, deciduous trees or shrubs, or in woodland areas where the plants will thrive in dappled shade and naturalise happily.
Combines well with the bulbs of Crocus, Snowdrops and Iris to produce a delicate winter symphony of colour.
Eranthis ‘Hyemalis’ holds a prestigious Award of Garden Merit from the RHS for its exceptional garden qualities.
