Erythronium dens-canis
Erythronium dens-canis (Liliaceae) 063 22
Erythronium dens-canis is a bulbous herbaceous perennial flowering plant in the family Liliaceae, growing to 25 cm. It is native to central and southern Europe from Portugal to Ukraine. It is the only naturally occurring species of Erythronium in Europe.
Erythronium dens-canis produces a solitary white, pink, or lilac flower at the beginning of spring. The petals are reflexed at the top and yellow-tinted at the base. The brown spotted leaves are ovate to lanceolate and grow in pairs. The white bulb is oblong and resembles a dog's tooth, hence the common name "dog's tooth violet" and the Latin specific epithet dens-canis, which translates as "dog's tooth".
This plant is found in damp, lightly shaded settings such as deciduous woodland.
