A gardener in Carson City, Nevada, had a plant labeled "California Poppy" that clearly wasn't. In its second year, it had buds but hadn't bloomed; first year was only greenery. It survived a dry, sub-freezing winter.

The plant may be a biennial. Leaves resemble piggyback plant (Tolmiea menziesii), but that species is native to redwood areas and unlikely to grow outdoors in Nevada. The expert suggested sending a photo when flowers open for easier ID, or visiting a local garden center, as Nevada natives differ from other regions.
