Family Papaveraceae

Valued for its compact growth habit and long flowering period, this recent introduction forms a vigorous mound of powdery gray-blue foliage, topped with clusters of bright cherry-red, heart-shaped flowers. Excellent for borders and container arrangements. Regular removal of spent flowers encourages the formation of a large number of new buds. Plant in a shaded area.
