  • Erythronium, commonly known as Dog’s Tooth Violet, is a clump-forming perennial that produces elegant, nodding, lily-like flowers in soft shades of yellow, pink, or white during early to mid Spring. Each bulb can produce a cluster of flowers above mottled or lance-shaped foliage, growing to around 20-30cm in height.

  • Plant erythronium bulbs in Autumn in humus-rich, well-drained soil. Choose a spot with partial to full shade, spacing bulbs 10-15cm apart and planting at a depth of around 10cm. After planting, water well and mulch with leaf mould or compost to retain moisture.

  • Erythronium bulbs are ideal for shady garden borders, woodland edges, rockeries, and beneath deciduous trees or shrubs. They pair beautifully with ferns, hostas, or other shade-loving perennials.
