Iowa Wildflowers

Hepatica
(Hepatica Americana) |
| Hepatica plants grow in a most unusual way.
Instead of producing green vegetation followed by blossoms, the hepatica
first produces flowers. After the flowers are no longer blooming,
3 lobed leaves are produced that remain visible until fall.
Hepatica blossoms don't often last long; enjoy them while you can. Northeast Iowa Timetable: Early April
