This woodland poppy from the eastern US graces one of our shade gardens under a canopy of Rhododendrons. The saturated color of its 2-inch wide flowers lights up the darkness all summer. The deeply lobed, downy leaves are up to 8 inches long. Each lobe resembles an oak leaf. Even the flower buds of Stylophorum diphyllum are noteworthy with their shiny white bristles.
