{"title":"Dentaria","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlthough some taxonomists have lumped Dentaria into the genus \u003cem\u003eCardamine\u003c\/em\u003e, we have chosen to keep these two shade-loving plants separate. The genus name, Dentaria, means \"toothed\" and indeed the rhizomes of these flowering perennials have many angular, tooth-like scars. The leaves, too, are often toothed (dentate). Dentaria is a woodland garden plant and prefers to keep company with the likes of uvularia, oxalis, and the smaller \u003ca title=\"more hosta varieties\" href=\"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/collections\/hosta-plant-blue-variegated-large-small-miniature-plantain-lily\"\u003ehosta varieties\u003c\/a\u003e. Compost-rich woodland soils with consistent moisture are best. Dentaria blooms in early to mid-spring with purple, pink, or white flowers. Eventually, the plants will spread to form a small colony.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe genus \u003cem\u003eDentaria\u003c\/em\u003e is in the family Brassicaeae which makes it a cousin to mustard, broccoli and cabbage and its plant parts sometimes have the same characteristic scent or flavor of its vegetable relatives. The roots of one species, \u003cem\u003eDentaria laciniata\u003c\/em\u003e, have been used as a mustard substitute.
