Field Notes

Description:

Just another variation of fumewort that I thought looks pretty interesting with the combination of this dark leaves and completely white flowers. However this wasn't an isolated case of this variation, as the difference from spotting from yesterday made in the Maksimir forest park, here the majority was white and just few were purple/pink!
Growing to 25 cm, it is a spring ephemeral, with foliage that appears in spring and dies down to its tuberous rootstock in summer. It is cultivated for its deeply divided, ferny leaves and narrow, long-spurred flowers which appear in spring. The flowers show color variation, and may be mauve, purple, red, or white. White is pretty rare at least around this micro-locations where the whole forest's floor is purple-pink colored and just few of white pops out.

Habitat:

Native to moist, shady habitats in northern Europe and Asia.
