Description

 Hepatica acutiloba, also known as "Sharp-Lobed Hepatica" or "Sharp-Lobed Liverleaf", is an early spring bloomer with dainty flowers in shades of white to lavender to blue. The 0.5" -1" blooms have 5-12 petals backed by 3 large bracts on hairy leafless stalks.

Despite being called an ephemeral, Hepatica's foliage usually persists into the winter. Its new leaves open after the flowers emerge in early spring. 

Hepatica acutiloba Liverleaf is native to the eastern half of North America, where it is typically found in deciduous wooded areas. It is an important food source for early pollinators.

We ship via UPS & USPS (the Post Office), and their ship rates are automatically generated through our site. We do not profit on shipping costs. We are working with these providers to get our customers the best rates possible.

All ship times are subject to change if extreme weather conditions are present here at the nursery or at the shipping destination.

Please note: Depending on the time of year, the foliage of the plants may be trimmed to fit into our shipping boxes. This could delay the flowering of the plant, but many perennials actually benefit from being cut back.
