Hepatica acutiloba Monroe Shocks 3a I remember exactly where I

I remember exactly where I was when my Dahlia 'Yellow Hammer' first flowered

Crinum 'Liberty Bells' multiplies and flowers very well

with a large liver-red nodding flower

From these emerge large 6" long matte-finished

the pleated green leaves lay flat to form a nice background for the spikes of white lipped flowers backed with chartreuse green petals

Hepatica acutiloba Monroe Shocks 3a I remember exactly where IWhen we collected a division of this Hepatica acutiloba in Alabama's Monroe County in 2011, we had no idea what we'd just found. After growing it in our garden for several years, we were shocked to notice that it not only thrived in our summer heat and humidity, but it also never went summer or fall dormant like almost all of our other hepatica collections. In fact, when it flowered in spring, the year old leaves still looked great. Hepatica acutiloba
