Romneya coulteri (non-Californian response)
penstemon (Sat, 15 Sep 2018 16:46:07 PDT)
I ask Californians for some information on this huge poppy with some
trepidation. It isn't in our photographs section. It doesn't have a bulb,
just large tapering roots, like Ranunculus, which is in our Wiki. >However,
it is Pacific, and it does come back in fall from a large underground water
storage system.
For what it’s worth, Romneya coulteri is fairly commonly grown in gardens in
Ireland, and in the U.K.
There are, or were, plants at Denver Botanic Gardens (on the south side of
the alpine house).
