Pasque flower (Pulsatilla patens syn. Anemone patens) is the state flower of South Dakota and found across much of the northern United States. It is a prairie flower with an early appearance in spring, often peeking out of the snow. Pasque flowers appear in March and stay through April.
How long do pasque flowers bloom?
The leaves re-emerge in early spring before they flower. Blooming for many weeks in early spring, the Pasque flowers are an ideal companion plant for many early spring blooming bulbs such as wildflower tulips, miniature daffodils, and crocus.
Should I deadhead pasque flowers?
Most of them (but not all) are perfectly hardy here. The flowers are followed by silky seedheads that become fluffier as they mature. Some gardeners find them very decorative while others prefer to deadhead them.
