About Purple, Poppy Mallow Seed
Purple Poppy Mallow (Callirhoe involucrata) is a native perennial ground cover with bright wine-purple, cup-shaped flowers. It thrives in full sun and dry, well-drained soil, making it a strong choice for rock gardens, borders, and water-wise plantings. The trailing stems form a low mat and bloom from summer into early fall. Its flowers provide forage for bees and other pollinators.

Tips
Pests & Diseases
Crown rot, root rot, and leaf spots are most likely in poorly drained or crowded sites. Use sharp drainage, keep mulch away from the crown, water at soil level, and remove badly affected tissue.
Watch for aphids, flea beetles, slugs, and other chewing insects on young growth. Use physical or targeted controls first and avoid treating open flowers while pollinators are active.
