Close-up photo of a bunch of Bloodroot plants.

Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis) is an early blooming but very ephemeral wildflower. The flowers last one or two days and then the petals drop off.

The red sap from the plant was used for dyes in earlier eras.

The plant contains the alkaloid Sanguinarine, which helps prevent plaque on teeth and is found in some toothpastes. Sanguinarine is also being researched due to its ability to kill cancer cells.

She and Noel Furie had just come out as lesbians when they opened an unusual gathering place for women in Connecticut. Nearly half a century later, it is still thriving.

Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis)

During the hike along the Pryde’s Point-Alexauken Creek Trail in Lambertville, I came across Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis), a beautiful wildflower that marks the arrival of spring. Its crisp white petals and golden centre stood out against the forest floor, framed by last season’s fallen leaves. These flowers don’t linger long—they bloom briefly before retreating, a quiet but striking part of the woodland’s seasonal rhythm. [caption id="attachment_123776" align="aligncenter" […]

As well as spring beauty and trout lily plants, I saw a few (two) bloodroot plants. In the wild, bloodroot is a protected plant in many areas. If you come across a patch of bloodroot, appreciate it from a distance and leave it undisturbed. The XF150-600mmF5.6-8 R LM OIS WR lens allows me to zoom in from afar, leaving the bloodroot and other native plants undisturbed.

Bloodroot can be found in the eastern part of North America, specifically in areas ranging from southern Canada to the eastern United States. It typically grows in moist, wooded areas and can often be found near streams or other bodies of water. The area along the bank of Rock Brook is the perfect environment for bloodroot. I discovered two hiking trails Rock Hopper and Pryde'S Point-Alexauken Creek during the pandemic with large colonies of bloodroot. Zion Crossing Park is closer to home.

The most striking feature of the bloodroot plant is its unique flower, which is pure white and has a bright yellow centre. The fragile spring flower develops and rises from the centre of its curled leaf, opening in full sun and closing at night. I've tried unsuccessfully to grow trout lilies in my patio "meadow container" garden.

In terms of when the bloodroot grows, it is an early spring bloomer, typically appearing in late March or early April. The flowers of the bloodroot plant are short-lived and will only last a few days. A part of me wonders if the plants have already bloomed and I've missed the show. I'll have to visit Zion Crossing Park and the Rock Hopper and Pryde'S Point-Alexauken Creek trails to confirm my suspicions.

A patch from my much-neglected garden #Gardening #Flowers #BloomScrolling #Florespondence #LungWort #BloodRoot

View of a big happy brunnera, blooming pink lung wort, a little astilbe, a giant clump of bloodroot crowding out a medium sized painted fern, Jacob’s ladder in bloom, a little divider made out of twigs and branches, and a big clump of forget me nots growing in the pathway. The ground is covered with wood mulch.

I’m always surprised how often local flora comes up in literature of the past — even in #Lovecraft!

One of my favorites... #Bloodroot, not yet in bloom, but love the shape of its leaves! 🙂 💕

If you dig one up and cut the stem/root it will "bleed" a reddish sap.

A single bloodroot bloom signals spring has arrived in the forest.

@Rihilism. Bloodroot is a polite native plant. The one curled leaf is raised politely. The single flower bud follows soon. The spread and flattened leaf follows. Bloodroot grows well from seed. And the seed heads are obvious. We have started colonies in several spots. Good luck with the gardening, #minnesota, #bloodroot, #growyourown, #nativeplants

A #bloodroot flower in the woods this morning after a rain. Sanguinaria canadensis. Its thick roots ooze a red liquid that was used by #Pennsylvania’s indigenous people for sacred art. This plant is becoming rarer and rarer in eastern PA. #flower #BloomScrolling #nativeplants #wildflowers

A flower with many longish white petals and in the center bright yellow stamens. Many raindrops in the petals catch and reflect brilliant slightly golden sunlight that casts the whole flower in brilliant light and shadow

@evan i wanted to go but I had a crazy week, so had no energy left to be in a crowd. I went to my local patch of woodland instead, to ressource. Bloodroots are in flower!
