0 offers
The Arctic poppy (Papaver nudicaule var. croceum) is a unique perennial plant found only in the Arctic. It blooms in spring with bright yellow and orange flowers, and stays in bloom just for a few weeks until the arrival of summertime. The Arctic poppy grows on bare stony ground and has been known to survive temperatures as low as -60°C. It is a hardy species that is adapted to long periods of drought and occasional heavy rainfall. Its leaves are ground-hugging, and its petals produce nectar to attract pollinators. Arctic poppies spread by their masses of seeds, and are a beloved addition to the rocky tundras of the far north.
