The plants have unique leaves that open below the flowers & can measure up to 9" wide. Bloodroot grows best in shade to part shade, & can tolerate moist or dry conditions. It makes a great ground cover, good for naturalizing. Use caution when handing the plants - they produce sanguinarine (which is stored mainly in the roots) & this can be toxic to humans & animals.
