Introducing the Hylomecon vernalis, also known as the Forest Poppy. Originating from the Far East, this perennial plant thrives in moist, shaded woodlands where it grows via rhizomes, typically no taller than 30 cm. Its soft green pinnate leaves have five leaflets, ranging in shape from lanceolate-oblong to rhombic, with distinct teeth lining the margins. The bright yellow flowers of the Hylomecon vernalis, measuring from 3.5 to 5 centimeters in diameter, start out bowl-shaped and then flatten out with age. This stunning plant is perfect for adding a touch of vibrancy and texture to your garden and is easy to grow in accumulated humus. Try planting the Forest Poppy today and bring a piece of the Far East to your garden.
