Beautiful blooms are blushed with rose on the exterior, while the interior is alabaster white with hints of green. Blooms Winter through early-Spring! Prefers loose, rich humusy soil. Super easy & low maintenance! Combine with Violas & Primula polyantha 'Victoriana Gold Lace' for a fun shady show of flowers Winter through Spring. Bait for snails.
