April.
Synonym:
Bear's-foot.
A perennial plant of
up to 50 cm high with dull green palmate, toothed leaves. The
flower buds and flowers are yellowish green and have a nodding
(hanging) habit. They are pollinated by bees. The plant dies back
in the winter.
This plant occurs
occasionally (South-East England and scattered localities north of
Lancashire) in damp, calcareous shrub and woodland, but it is
more often a naturalised escape from gardens. It likes to grow in
deep leaf-mould.
