Dutchman’s Breeches Flowers

Dutchman’s Breeches is a native perennial wildflower occurring in rich or rocky deciduous moist woods and ravines, and in the mountains. This woodland perennial can spread to cover considerable areas. It prefers humus-rich, acid to neutral soils and tolerates clay soils.

 

In spring, the basal ferny leaves appear along with a leafless arching stem bearing a row of fragrant white pantaloon-shaped flowers. It blooms in March and adds early interest to the garden. By summer, the plant goes dormant. 

Its propagation can be done by division of crowns or root cuttings in spring or fall.
