Pasque Flower (Anemone patens) 3-pack of pots
Can’t be shipped.
Also known as prairie crocus, Pasque Flower is one of the first flowers to bloom in northern gardens and prairies. It blooms in late April—far before most plants even come out of dormancy! Highly sought after, there are few nurseries where you can buy the true midwest prairie Pasque Flower (be aware: many nurseries offer the maroon European Pasque Flower, or a different Pasque Flower species from the western US). Our Pasque Flowers are grown from seed that has been collected in Minnesota prairies.

Design Tips
Pasque Flower is very short and can be easily out-competed by more aggressive plants, so plant it with other short, conservative plants or keep it towards garden borders. Trimming or burning the garden in fall or late winter gives room for Pasque Flower (Anemone patens) to grow the next spring.
Great native plant choice for the Minnesota Lawns to Legumes grant program!
