Eschscholzia californica is an herbaceous annual/perennial featuring blue-green glaucous foliage, brilliant orange-yellow blooms (cultivars in red, yellow, pink, and cream). Self-seeds readily. It often goes dormant/deciduous in the heat of summer. Uses include mass planting, rock garden, erosion control, revegetation. Highly tolerant of seacoast conditions and moderately tolerant of desert and intermountain conditions. Low shade tolerance; prefers full sun but can tolerate very light part shade. Flowers will not open fully without direct sunlight. It thrives in poor, fast-draining, sandy, or gravelly soils. High drought tolerance; it survives on minimal water via a deep taproot. Moderate watering until plants are established; water infrequently afterward. Deer and rabbit-resistant. Fire-resistant. Cold hardy to -10°F.
