Winecup
$14.50
Callirhoe involucrata
During spring, winecups produce masses of solid pink to magenta flowers. Combined with plants such as Wild Foxglove and Four-nerve Daisy, their trailing form and distinctly lobed foliage are especially attractive. Alternatively, you can hang it over a wall or turn it into a basket. In well-drained soil, this stunning, spreading perennial is drought tolerant.
Purple poppy-mallow stems sprawl along the ground for up to 3 feet, forming a thick mat. The leaves are rounded, hairy, deeply lobed, and cleft. It is chalice-shaped and measures 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 inches in height. A white spot can be seen at the base of the five maroon petals on these wide flowers. On long, axillary stalks, the flowers close in the evening, open in the morning, and remain closed after pollination.
Winecup is an attractive, spreading, drought-tolerant perennial susceptible to rust in wet seasons.
