Celandine Poppy - Stylophorum Diphyllum
Celandine Poppy is a beautiful perennial wildflower that gives woodland gardens and sheltered areas a vibrant pop of color. Its golden blooms and lush foliage make it easy to naturalize.
Celandine Poppy Thrives Almost Anywhere It's Planted
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.
Seasonal Blooms and Color Changes of Celandine Poppy
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.
Shape and Longevity of The Plant
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.
The Celandine Poppy plants at TN Nursery are carefully grown and shipped as vigorous bare-root plants. These hardy wildflowers grow quickly, giving you vibrant flowers year after year. Plant it in your yard to create a long-lasting color in the shade!

Care

Planting bare-root perennials is best in any season if they are dormant; we only sell dormant plants. Planting them year-round is also excellent if you can get dormant perennials. When your bare-root perennials arrive, soak the roots in water for a few hours to rehydrate them. Lant by digging a hole wide enough to spread the roots comfortably and deep enough to place the top portion crown (where the roots meet the stem) at or slightly above ground level. Position the plant in the hole, backfill with native soil, and gently firm the soil around the roots—water well after planting to settle the soil around the plant and eliminate air. Apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch to keep weeds at bay and moisture locked in, keeping the mulch away from the crown. Irrigate plants regularly during the first few weeks of drought; never water in full sun, and water late in the evenings to ensure the roots are established well. Fertilize sparingly in the first year, using a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in subsequent years as needed.
