Erythronium dens-canis 'Pink Perfection'

Erythronium dens-canis 'Pink Perfection' has beautiful burgundy-mottled foliage that gives rise to red stems and nodding, soft pink, lily-like flowers in spring. Very special. Note that flowers seem to emerge a darker pink (as pictured) but then soften to a lovely mid to light pink. 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.
