Papaver rhaeticum


Hardiness Zones: 5 to 7
Height: 8 in Spacing: 6 in
Type: herbaceous perennial
Flowers: Yellow

Comments: Yellow flowers and a diminutive growth habit make
this poppy a desirable garden plant. The yellow flowers
appear for about 2 months and are 2 inches across. Provide
a growing area with full sun and a well-drained soil. This
may be a good choice for rock gardens. The plant is native
to Europe.
