Purple Poppy Mallow, also known as Winecups, offers a massive display of chalice-shaped magenta flowers on trailing, deeply lobed foliage. Excellent as a rock garden plant or ground cover, individual plants can spread up to three or more feet in width, while remaining only a foot high. Callirhoe involucrata looks great trailing over a wall and fits well in both formal and naturalized settings. Early Summer is its peak bloom time, but plants can continue blooming throughout summer and into the fall. Flowering can be prolonged by deadheading - removing old flowers before they set seed. Easily grown in dry to medium, soils in full sun, Purple Poppy Mallow is very drought tolerant with a long tap root. A larval host plant and nectar source for the Gray Hairstreak butterfly.
