Macleaya cordata
is a perennial plant that grows from 1 to 2 meters tall and has a
white, powdery coating. It is a perennial plant found in sunny
wilderness areas or on roadsides. The leaves are 10-30cm long and
cleft into several lobes, resembling those of chrysanthemums. Curly
hairs grow luxuriously on the back of the surface. The stem tips
create significant panicles with many white flowers. The flowers
lack petals, and the sepals drop off simultaneously with the
flowering. The fruit (capsule) measures around 2.5cm in length.
Bloom time: July-August. |
