(P) to 2′. A lovely white form of the Japanese Wood Poppy. Large, heavily-veined and crinkled maple-like leaves create a perfect backdrop for Poppy-like flowers comprised of four, snow white, petaloid sepals that surround a large, showy central boss of numerous bright yellow stamens. This rare woodland aristocrat blooms in May and the show continues with interesting fruits of substantial, upright, two fused follicles which persist until fall. Moist soil. Partial shade. 3 & 7 & Δ
*Tip: If germination does not occur after 3-4 weeks, place seed pans in a cool location (about 40°) for 2-4 weeks
