Grand-Flowered Horned Poppy
Glaucium grandiflorum (Grand-Flowered Horned Poppy) is a showy perennial forming a handsome rosette of deeply-cut, scalloped, blue-gray leaves. In summer and fall, rich orange-red poppy flowers, 1.5 in. across (4 cm), are produced on long stems above the foliage. Adding months of color, they are attractive to bees. They give way to long, narrow, seed pods that ripen in late summer to spread their seed around the garden. Glaucium grandiflorum is easy to grow and undemanding. It reseeds freely in good growing conditions, springing up and shining in the garden year after year.
