Mertensia virginica

Wow!
Another little gem Plantaholic.

Hi, good plant for a shady spot, just wish it would multiply a little quicker!

I might be impatient too.....

I just wish mine would bloom! It's never bloomed & I've had it for 4 years. It gets to a certain point then just goes dormant. I was ready to dig it all up in frustration but decided to move some of the plants last year & see what happened. They seem to be growing much better in their new spot. We've also had much more rain than normal so that might be helping them. I'm keeping my fingers crossed - I've loved this plant for years, I worked as an assistant gardener on an estate and there was a big mass of them with hellebores. They were fabulous.
