Papaver Rhoeas (poppy) Seeds

In the wild, this showy annual often grows in huge, dramatic drifts. The effect can easily be recreated in the garden, where this variety will also associate beautifully with other cottage garden plants. The seed heads are highly decorative and can be dried for use in floral arrangements. Flowers May to July. Planting sow straight into well-sieved seedbeds, 1cm deep and 20cms apart, March May. Thin out to 15cms spacing when the seedlings are large enough. Sow in August or September for flowers in the following year. Will not germinate if planted in grass. Aftercare deadheading will prolong the flowering season. Eventual height & spread 60 20cms.
