Erythronium dens-canis ‘Lilac Wonder’

Erythronium 'Lilac Wonder' has beautiful burgundy-mottled foliage and nodding, lavender, lily-like flowers in spring.

Erythronium ‘Lilac Wonder’ has beautiful burgundy-mottled foliage that gives rise to red stems and nodding, lavender-pink, lily-like flowers in spring. Very special. Plant in a woodland setting or shade border with moisture retentive, fertile soil. Erythroniums will go dormant before summer so plant them near late-emerging perennials like hostas and toadlilies. Dry bulbs should be planted ASAP as viability out of soil is not long.
