Introducing the charming Hylomecon vernalis, commonly known as Forest Poppy, a captivating perennial belonging to the Papaveraceae family. Native to the serene forests of China, Korea, and the Russian Far East, this delightful plant has been admired since the 19th century for its vibrant display of nature's elegance. Ideal for enhancing woodland gardens, Forest Poppy thrives in moist, shaded environments enriched with humus, reaching heights of 20-30 cm. The plant features distinctive pinnate leaves with soft green leaflets that vary from lanceolate-oblong to rhombic shapes, each adorned with intricately toothed margins.

The star attractions are the stunning bright yellow flowers, 3.5–5 cm across, that bloom from May to June, offering a vivid splash of color. Ideal for rock gardens or small group plantings, Forest Poppy prefers semi-shade to sunny spots. It propagates through seeds and division, blooming vibrantly in many regions. Introduce this botanical gem to your garden for a touch of timeless beauty!
