Product Info
Celandine Poppy (Stylophorum diphyllum)
Poppy Family
Bright yellow, papery flowers emerge from fuzzy blue-green leaves in early spring. Although this is a classic woodland plant, it is more tolerant of average soils than some of its friends. If it becomes too dry, leaves will disappear, otherwise they may remain up through late summer into early fall. Leaves add nice texture to the woodland garden and can be planted companionably with ferns, Virginia Bluebells, Sedges, Great White Trillium, and Woodland Phlox.
