Dutchman’s Breeches (Dicentra cucullaria) is a graceful and easily recognizable wildflower in spring often found on gorges, valleys, ledges, slopes, rock forests, forest floors, and streams throughout most of the United States.
Dutchman’s breeches are perennial herbs in the Fumariaceae family[1] native to eastern North America’s rich forests. This plant has also known by many common names, including Bleeding Heart and Little Blue Staggers.
