When bloodroot flowers are in bloom, small bees, ants, wasps, and beetles take advantage of the opportunity to pollinate the flower. During the summer, the bloodroot will go completely dormant (including the leaves). There is a blood-red sap that is found in all parts of the plant that is used for medicinal purposes for various ailments.
