I wasn't expecting the small Virginia waterleaf I planted last month to bloom already. That's a nice surprise!

Pacific Waterleaf flower (Hydrophyllum tenuipes).
To me it looks like fireworks or maybe something alien.
Have a wonderful day.

phacelia would be a beautiful name for a baby girl 😌

#NativePlants Hydrophyllum virginianum (Virginia Waterleaf) shows a lot of variation in bloom color. Both of these clumps were from the same planting in similar conditions in the front beds. Both equally lovely!

More #NativePlants showing out early. Tons of Sedum ternatum including a few buds already on left next to something I don’t remember right now. Right is emerging Hydrophyllum virginianum (Virginia Waterleaf). So many happy plants!

Tiny clusters of groundcover sedum, some already showing signs of bud clusters for early blooms and a second cluster of thick short foliage that I don’t have notes for in my planting list right now. Shapely foliage of Hydrophyllum virginianum (Virginia Waterleaf) with a hint of red tracing the center peeking out from twigs and leaf litter.

Our Hydrophyllum virginianum (Virginia Waterleaf) has bloomed for the first time and it surprisingly delicate and gorgeous—and swarmed with #pollinators, of course.
