Plants that bloom in March in Zone 4 with purple flowers

Anna's Red Hellebore

Wine-red outward-facing blooms above silver-marbled foliage. Bred to face the viewer, not the ground, like older hellebores do.

Crocus

One of the first signs of spring, pushing through snow with jewel-toned cups.

Eastern Redbud

Magenta flowers erupt directly from bare branches. Spring showstopper tree.

Grape Hyacinth

Tiny grape-like clusters that spread into rivers of blue over time.

Hellebore

The Lenten Rose. Elegant nodding blooms that thrive in deep shade.

Hyacinth

Dense, intensely fragrant spikes. One bulb can perfume an entire room.

Lenten Rose

Nodding flowers in late winter when nothing else is blooming. Evergreen foliage adds year-round structure to shade gardens.

Onyx Odyssey Hellebore

Fully double black-purple blooms that look almost theatrical. The darkest hellebore available, and worth the hunt to find one.

Tulip

The classic spring icon in almost every color imaginable.
