Description
Large crepe-paper like salmon pink petals form a bowl around this Oriental Poppy’s dark ornamental centers. Sunlight makes the translucent petals of this Papaver positively glow with color. The foliage forms a clump that persists over winter in small tufts. Fascinating attractive seedpods add a nice touch to dried arrangements. The blossoms are a favorite for butterflies and hummingbirds.
Avoid over-watering poppies. They don’t mind drying out a bit between waterings.
