This pretty and unusual California poppy has silky, deep rose-tinted blossoms that glow with iridescent color. For weeks in spring, the abundant, paper-thin flowers float on slender stems above mounded plants with feathery grey-green foliage. Like all California poppies, Dusky Rose is carefree, easy to grow and forgiving of poor soil. Perfect for a neglected area, a hard to cultivate slope or simply grow and enjoy Dusky Rose for a lovely natural ambience in any garden area.
