Nursery contributed plant descriptions
Deep wine-red cupped flowers with contrasting creamy white stamens cover this durable native groundcover in spring with flowering often continuing well into mid-summer. An excellent choice where it can be allowed to naturalize or where it can be enjoyed spilling from large containers or over a wall. Woodland Poppy Mallow is a taprooted native perennial found in south and central US. Winecups are drought tolerant once well-established
