Hepatica leaves are very fuzzy. This helps the plants to keep warmer in the very early spring. the leaves usually come out after the flowers.
Sometimes Round-lobed Hepatica leaves are variegated.
This patch of Round-lobed Hepatica leaves is from the previous season. If you get lucky, you will have the pervious season's leaves accompanying the flowers, as the leaves are pretty well the only way to tell Round-lobed Hepatica apart from Sharp-lobed Hepatica (Anemone acutiloba)!
PLEASE NOTE: A coloured Province or State means this species occurs somewhere in that Province/State.
The entire Province/State is coloured, regardless of where in that Province/State it occurs.
