Pulsatilla patens (syn. Anemone patens) (Ranunculaceae)

It keeps snowing in Edmonton but this prairie pasqueflower is lifting my spirits. It’s also known as prairie crocus and prairie smoke. I saw this one in Cypress Hills Provincial Park in May 2011 (special thanks to 13-year-old me for actually taking good photos sometimes).

As the pasque flower matures, it drops its flower petals and elongates its stem. Elongation helps with dispersal. The seeds are attached to the center ball on the end of the stalk, and each seed has a small tail. The wind helps move these seeds once they ripen, and the tail helps each seed "self-seed". Small hairs on each tail expand and contract with changing temperature and humidity to twist and work the seed through the other grasses and old plant litter to the soil where it can germinate.

Pasqueflower (Pulsatilla patens var. multifida) is backlit by the afternoon sun, Beartooth Range, Wyoming. Along with Hood’s phlox, this is one of our earliest blooming Spring wildflowers.

Early Bloomer

In the span of less than one week, we’ve experienced highs in the 80s on the west side of the park, and a fresh coating of snow on the east side. Such is springtime in Glacier!

An early-blooming spring flower that’s been popping up on the east side is the Eastern pasqueflower, also known as: Anemone patens, Pulsatilla patens, Anemone nuttalliana, prairie crocus, prairie smoke...

Pasqueflowers are members of the buttercup family. They’re usually found in cooler temperate climates, and have an elevational range from 300 to 12,500 feet. After blooming in the spring and summer, the flower will go to seed, until the final seed head looks like a shaggy ball of hairy threads. Or, as many park visitors point out, something out of a Dr. Seuss book.  

You can find two kinds of pasqueflowers in the park. The Eastern pasqueflower is purple, and the Western pasqueflower (found at higher elevations) is white - and more Lorax-like.

[First image shows a fuzzy cup-shaped purple flower with bright yellow inside growing in a prairie with conifers in the background. Second image shows a person looking through binoculars in the mountains with fuzzy white seed heads on long green stalks growing in the foreground.]
