Celandine Poppy - Stylophorum Diphyllum

It is incredibly simple to plant and care for, making it an excellent choice for gardeners of all ability levels. It grows well in a well-drained, organically fertile soil, preferring part to full shade. Till the soil, place the roots below ground, cover lightly, and water. Once established, it doesn't require much care other than a couple of soakings during dry spells and mulch to keep the soil moist and deter weeds.

In mid-to-late spring, they will bear yellow, cup-shaped flowers with a fragile, crepe-like structure. Each flower blooms for several weeks, which makes a cheerful scene in the shade. The flowers are topped by deeply lobed, blue-green leaves that appear like a shadow during the growing season. The leaves can turn a soft gold in fall before they are dormant in winter.

It clumps in small pods measuring 12 to 18 inches tall. Its bright flowering and dense foliage make it ideal for borders, woodland gardens, or naturalized plantings. Because it is perennial, it blooms again yearly, offering durability and stability.
