Eschscholzia
caespitosa * Tufted Eschscholzia |
| This
diminutive poppy is often found along the trails of Southern California. It grows
in areas that become extremely dry in the summer. I have seen
Eschscholtzia caespitosa growing on south
facing shale scree as well as heavier clay soils. In smaller
gardens and rock gardens, using Eschscholtzia caespitosa instead of
Eschscholtzia californica can help to keep the garden more
tidy. Seed will be harder to find but it is available.
