Description
Cardamine quinquefolia, the five-leaved cuckoo flower or whorled coral-root, is a species of flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae, native to an area from southeastern Europe to northern Iran. Growing to 12 in. tall and 39 in. broad, this spreading herbaceous perennial produces masses of violet-colored flowers in spring. The whole plant dies down in summer. This plant is used as groundcover in gardens. It has received the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. It prefers a sheltered spot in full or partial shade. If Cardamine likes the location, it only takes a few years before it becomes a carpet that weaves through plants that fill out in May.
Pot size: 3" round
