Pasque flower

Pulsatilla is an early flowering perennial with pale purple-blue velvety flowers and attractive grey-green foliage. This is a plant that likes well-drained soil, so it is excellent as a rockery plant, in a raised bed or in a container with good drainage. It prefers a sunny spot and is a popular plant with alpine growers. The flowers are particularly lovely and are early to bloom in late March or early April - normally around Easter. After flowering, the foliage and spent flowers remain attractive. Will spread and self-sow if in the right conditions. Small plants in as9 cms container
