Dutchman's Britches/Breeches (Dicentra Cucullaria) is a perennial favorite of hikers exploring the Appalachian Trail. But you can find wild examples of this plant in moist, woodsy places from North Dakota to New Jersey, and Quebec, Canada to Helena, Georgia. Although, they prefer more mountainous climes.
I don't have to travel any further than my backyard and no higher than 90 ft above sealevel to enjoy this interesting plant.
On a whim I bought three of them last year on sale late in the season. They were beautiful, but I wondered whether they would make it. And now they are back just as full and beautiful as last year. Enjoy.
