Sanguinaria canadensis f. multiplex Double-flowered bloodroot Z 4-8
Snowballs of pure white buds open to dozens of petals atop unfolding, glaucous, mitten-shaped foliage in early spring. By late spring it recedes into the earth and goes dormant. Inside its roots are same red sap as in the single form. It is sterile and can only be propagated by division. Easy to divide – dig after blooming and cut or pull apart two stems making sure both halves have roots. Then replant right away.
