One of North America’s all-time native wildflower favorites, beautiful Bloodroot, a member of the poppy family, rises in early spring with unique cigar-shaped rolled up leaves that eventually open into large, waterlily-like foliage. Then the magnificent pristine white flowers appear, from about 1 to 2" across, and literally light up the forest floor. This treasured native plant has been important for centuries, and takes its common name from the orangey red juice that oozes from the root when cut. The richly textured large leaves and breathtaking pristine white flowers make it special. Best of all, Bloodroot is quite easy to grow, as long as it is given a moist shaded situation and rich woodsy soil.

"First of all, I only received 2 in the bag, but I thought blood root was supposed to be pretty easy to grow so I wasn't that worried about it. I didn't think the roots I recieved looked great but I tried to give them a chance anyway. I knew to not expect any leaves this year but I just pulled back the soil to check if they were doing anything at all and they have all rotted into mush without ever attempting to grow a single root."
"Of the 3 pack of 3, only 1 of the nine has grown. I've watered every 2 days since we've had almost no rain."
"I received two packages. The root inside was small and shriveled, hard to discern from the potting mix it came in. I planted them in a partly shady part of my flower garden. Only one plant grew."
"Ordered these last spring. I was so looking forward to seeing these bloodroot bloom, but alas not a song one of them grew or bloomed."
"Out of all the plants I've ordered from AM, these are the only ones that never came up. Planted April/May 2021 and it is now April 2022. I planted them amongst my bleeding heart, columbines, virginia bluebells, trillium, and oxalis - all of which are thriving. Oh well. They looked healthy when they arrived, I don't know what happened. But it seems I'm not alone in this"
"I was nervous ordering this because of the comments. But mine are doing well. I planted them last fall, did nothing special to the bare root plants, live in a city and this spring I saw the leaves of every plant I planted. I'm hoping to see flowers in the following years."
"very dry in Pinson, Al. have kept it watered, it has completely disappeared. Have noticed a lot of spring blooming flowers do disappear only to reappear next spring"
"Unfortunitly the bloodroots did not come up at all. The Jack in the pulpits and bleedig hearts did."
"I planted several roots in the fall of 2011 and this spring (2013) was the first spring they flowered or even showed they existed after planting!! Thankfully this is an area that I'm naturalizing so basically it's left undisturbed. Planted under a big oak tree with much leaf litter keeps the area moist which is a requirement for this plant. I must say also that there were more flowers this spring than what I planted!!"
"I had several leaves unfolding, then all of a sudden a mole tore through that part of my garden. Hoping they come back next year."
