Peppermint Ice Lenten Rose is a late winter-blooming evergreen perennial with leathery dark green basal foliage. Clusters of very large downward facing double soft pink to white flowers with dark purplish-pink backs, edging, and veining on the petals bloom from late winter into early spring. Best bloom in dappled sun and moist well-drained soils. All parts of the plant are toxic if ingested.
