Description
Pulsatilla grandis, commonly known as Greater Pasque Flower, is a charming perennial celebrated for its silky, bell-shaped blooms that emerge in early spring. The flowers, in shades of violet-blue, are adorned with golden stamens at the center, creating a striking contrast. The plant's finely divided, silvery-green foliage adds texture and remains attractive after flowering. As the flowers fade, they are replaced by feathery seed heads that provide visual interest well into summer. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, Pulsatilla grandis is an excellent choice for rock gardens, alpine gardens, or borders. It is drought-tolerant once established and requires minimal care, making it ideal for low-maintenance landscapes. Its early blooms attract pollinators such as bees, contributing ecological value to your garden.
Sowing Advice
Best sown in late summer or early autumn. Use a well-draining seed-starting mix and press seeds lightly onto the soil surface without covering, as they require light to germinate. Maintain consistent moisture and a temperature of 15–20°C (59–68°F). Germination can take 2–4 weeks. Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots and grow them on until they are ready for outdoor planting. Space plants 20–30 cm apart in a sunny, well-drained location.
