Poppy (Papaver rupifragum Double Tangerine Gem) - This perennial flower is a native of Morocco and brings saturated tangerine tones to the most rocky and arid landscapes. Fully double orange blooms of overlapping rings of paper-thin silky petals with Ferny, silver-blue foliage only growing 12 inches tall. Sunlight makes the translucent petals of Papaver Double Tangerine positively glow with color. The fascinating attractive seedpods will add a nice touch to dried arrangements. This cute little robust plant looks best in a rock garden or edging a hot, sunny border.
This pollinator-attracting blooms in the first year and reseeds readily. In 1890, Sir William Jackson Hooker described finding P. rupifragum growing in dry, rocky places of southern Morocco at an elevation of 6,000 - 7,000 feet. Indeed, this drought-tolerant plant is perfect for meadows, xeriscaping, rocky gardens, and sunny, dry locations!
