Glacier Lily
Erythronium Grandiflorum
Overview
The Glacier Lily, Erythronium grandiflorum, is a delicate native bulb known for its bright yellow blooms. Flowers emerge in spring, reaching 8-20 inches in height, and thrive in well-drained, moist woodland soils. Ideal for naturalizing in shaded areas, it provides early-season nectar for pollinators. Hardy in Zones 3-8 and resistant to deer, it adds a splash of color in woodland gardens and under deciduous trees. Consider planting in groups for visual impact.
