These grow so fast! I have one that I swear doubled in size since yesterday (and this is a confirmed native one I planted from a plug). No blooms yet but it’s early here.

I picked one up a last week. Been waiting for it to warm a bit more before I put it in. The blooms are so pretty. Had no clue there was a native poppy for Missouri.

These are one of my favorites! I’ve seen them growing straight out of the cracks in limestone.

Always a showstopper! We have Wood poppy/Celandine poppy (Stylophorum diphyllum) in one of our public pollinator gardens and it’s got to be the #1 plant I get asked about. Just as spectacular as any non-native spring bulb, super easy to grow and reseeds itself here and there too!
Mine have been a little slow to emerge this spring (no doubt because it’s been a cold winter and a relatively chilly early spring so far) but I expect them to catch up very quickly now that they’re sprouting.
