California State Flower
California Poppy
Eschscholtzia californica
California Indians used the poppy as both a source of food and for oil extracted from the plant. Its botanical name, Eschsholtzia californica, was given by Adelbert Von Chamisso, a naturalist and member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences, who visited San Francisco in 1816.
Also known as the flame flower, la amapola, and copa de oro (cup of gold), the poppy grows wild throughout California. It became the state flower in 1903. April 6 is California Poppy Day, and Governor Wilson proclaimed May 13-18, 1996, Poppy Week.
