Claim: Erythronium revolutum is an ornamental plant, used in natural gardens (Natural landscaping, also called native gardening) and it has graceful blue flowers.
Evidence: Its combination of attractively patterned leaves and graceful flowers in mid spring make it a desirable plant. The best forms (often called var. johnstonii) have darker, richer pink flowers and well marked foliage. There are six tepals in shades of pink or light purple which may have yellow or white spotting toward the center of the flower. Erythronium revolutum can be distinguished from related species by its pink flowers, swollen anther filaments and mottled leaves.
