Description

Jeffersonia diphylla, also known as Twinleaf, is a native woodland perennial prized for its twin-lobed leaves which emerge pinkish before maturing to their characteristic blue-green. Delicate cup-shaped flowers about 1 inch across, featuring eight pure white petals and a central cluster of bright yellow stamens follow. Ideal for shaded borders and naturalistic plantings, it thrives in rich, well-drained soil with even moisture. Though slow-growing, it will gently colonize over time, forming graceful clumps that add quiet beauty to the spring garden. Seed propagation requires patience but yields a rare and refined native treasure.
