Great Design Plant: Uvularia Grandiflora Thrives in Shade Gardens (6 photos)

Distinguishing traits. The flower stalk appears to pierce through the leaf, similar to an earring. The large, showy yellow flowers have twisted petals that hang downward. The flowers last around two weeks and provide splashes of yellow in a woodland or shade garden. The round, smooth leaves are often light green to blue-green.

How to use it. Large-flowered bellwort can be used in any shady location under deciduous trees. Combine it with other spring-flowering, medium-height woodland perennials, including May apple (Podophyllum peltatum), baneberry (Actaea spp), early meadow rue (Thalictrum dioicum) and Jacob’s ladder (Polemonium reptans).
