Stylophorum lasiocarpum, Chinese Celandine Poppy

Daintily weaving its way through the shade garden, this elegant woodland poppy comes in shades of soft yellow to glow in the dim light. Late spring to early autumn bloom. One of the relatively few shade perennials that can tolerate some drought (though it is happy with moisture, too). From forest understory in central and eastern China.  Mature size: 18 inches tall & naturalizing Minimum temperature: -30º F
