Bush Island Poppy is a beautiful shrub with waxy  blue-green leaves and large(3?) golden flowers that bloom intermittently all year  with particularly strong blooming in spring and summer. The combination of its leaf color  gorgeous blooms and drought tolerance make this a highly-prized landscaping plant. It can be used as a small tree or accent plant in a small garden  as a backdrop in large-scale dry borders  or as a hedge or screen that requires very little water. This plant is not a host to the Glassy Wing Sharpshooter and has been recommended as a replacement for Oleanders that have died as a result of  Pierce?s Disease. Provide full sun or part shade and well-draining soil.
