This listing is for one packet of Purple Poppy Mallow, (Callirhoe involucrata) seeds. Each packet contains roughly 25 seeds. For best germination of native species, remember to scatter seeds October-January!
Purple Poppy Mallow: A.k.a. wine cups. Large, cupped flowers are vivid purple and last multiple days! Often used as a trailing plant in terraced/rock gardens, or as ground cover for dry, depleted soils. Height varies from 12”-20”, spread may be up to 8’. Requires dry, well drained soils and full sun. In fertile soils it may be overgrown with taller species. Has a substantial tap root, so is difficult to transplant.
“Purple Poppy Mallow will self-seed when it is happy. Directly sown from the plant, seeds have a very tough coating. We sell this species with the hull removed. Even with the hull removed, we recommend following the guidelines for Germination Code B: bring water to a boil and pour it over the seed - allow seeds to soak in the water overnight, then artificially stratify or sow outdoors in the fall. We find this method encourages more consistent germination.”
