Hi Louise,

   According to Mark Griffith's "Index of Garden Plants", P. rupifragum
   is a perennial that grows about 45 cm high (1 1/2 feet) with pale
   brick-red blooms about 7.5 cm (3 1/4") in diameter.  Hardy to zone
   7, it has oblong to lanceolate pinnate leaves coming from a 
   tufted base (so the leaves are like a lot of other poppies).
