Revered for its charming, bell-shaped flowers and silken, fern-like foliage, this spring bloomer is not only an ornamental garden favorite but also carries a rich history of cultural and medicinal significance. The name “Pasque” comes from the Old French word for Easter, as the plant tends to bloom around that time of year. The Greater Pasque Flower is a timeless addition to the spring garden, offering early color, unique texture, and ecological benefits. Though it requires a bit more attention to start from seed, it rewards the patient gardener with years of beautiful blooms and elegant foliage.

Getting to know your The Greater Pasque Flower

The Greater Pasque Flower is a low-growing perennial with an upright clumping habit. It emerges in early spring, with fine, dissected, gray-green foliage that resembles delicate ferns. The plant remains compact and forms a tidy mound of foliage that continues to provide interest even after the flowering season is over.

Each plant produces 1 to 3 nodding, bell-shaped flowers on soft, fuzzy stems. The blooms, which appear in early spring, are typically deep purple but can also range from lavender to bluish hues, with a central yellow eye comprised of vibrant stamens. As the flowers fade, they are followed by decorative, silky seed heads that look like tufts of feathery plumes—another attractive feature of this plant.
