Pulsatilla vulgaris is a clump-forming perennial celebrated for its early spring display of large, bell-shaped purple flowers. Reaching 9 to 12 inches tall, it features finely-divided, fern-like foliage covered in soft, silvery hairs. This plant thrives in full sun and well-drained, gritty soils, making it an ideal choice for rock gardens or border fronts. After blooming, it produces ornamental, plume-like seedheads. It is best left undisturbed once established in cool to temperate climates.
