Found in woods and valleys, usually white but pink and blue forms can be found. Taxonomically close to European species, and many of the deeply colored forms in cultivation are from European stock. The scientific name keeps changing - FLNPS tries to use the NYFA Atlas taxonomy.
Seedling
Hepatica can take 1-2 yr to germinate, so moss and weeds are common. Hepatica has bluish tinge, reddish stem. Violas show true leaves faster!
