Wow, nice. It’s like a giant purple Sisyrinchium idahoense.
Now I want some and need to figure out where to plant them.
Is it hard to grow? I’m surprised it isn’t in the general plant trade.

I tried, or am still trying, to grow these this year. Cold/moist strat’ed em in the fridge and then into a seed tray. They germinated but have only been teeny tiny single blades for like 1.5 months now. I don’t think I’ve ever seen them for sale at any of the native nurseries I frequent. I’m jealous

So pretty and delicate. Just the right temp and humidity looks like
In-thebeginning
These are early spring wildflowers where I live. I snapped this photo on the trail. It’s so cool to see one growing in your yard. How special.
