Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Hunnemannia (John Hunneman, English friend of botany, died 1839). Papaveraceae. Mexican Tulip Poppy. One yellow-flowered herb closely allied to the California poppy (Eschscholtzia) and of similar garden value, where hardy.

The genus agrees with Eschscholtzia in having much- cut foliage and spreading lobes of the stigma, but differs in having separate sepals instead of the peculiar hood- like calyx of Eschscholtzia which covers the young fl. like a candle extinguisher: torus scarcely dilated; sepals 2, caducous; petals 4, spreading, yellow; stamens many, orange-colored; ovary oblong, attenuated into a short style: caps. 1-celled and 2-valved, prominently 10-nerved; seeds many.—Mex. in the xerophytic regions.
