Dolls Eyes

Dolls Eyes

Actaea Pachypoda

Doll’s Eyes gets its name from the look of the seeds that are very white with a black spot giving them the look of a doll’s eye. When happened upon in the woods the candles of white flowers are a pleasure to behold. In the garden, you’ll need to plant in mesic soil, maybe slightly on the moist side to make sure that this plant really thrives. It seems to handle a fairly wide range of light exposure from shade to sun with only west facing proving to be a detriment.
