Twinleaf is a delightful spring-blooming perennial which grows in moist, rich , usuall basic woods. A solitary white-petaled flower rises on leafless stems 8 or 9 inches tall. The flowers look a bit like shaggy daisies and last a single day followed by an upright seed pod or follicle, with a distinct cap which is held closed until seeds are ready to be dispersed. Twinleaf is named for its foliage which is actually one leaf divided into two semicircles a t the end of a stalk. Good companions for Twinleaf are Foamflower, Bishops Cap, Celandine Poppy and Shooting Stars. They may naturalize and form huge patches of thousands of plants. This is a spectacular site! Cat# 1519
