Benefit:

Flowers every year

Characteristics:

This variety, resistant to the wind thanks to its very rigid stems, produces large flowers (15 to 20 cm in diameter) with very bright colors ranging from white to red. With its bright and vibrant colors, this poppy will brighten up your garden.

Height: 50cm

Soil tip:

Poppies prefer deep, fertile and well-drained soils, even limestone.

Deco ideas:

Combine your poppies in your garden with later flowering flowers that will replace them during the summer such as cosmos, clarkias, marigolds and zinnias. In dried flowers, they are also very decorative.

The stages of sowing:

Sow from April to July in a rich and fine land in mid-shade and then cup the soil. At the 3-4 leaf stage, plant the most vigorous plants 10 cm apart in the middle of the shade.

Just before winter, place your poppies in pots under a shelter.

The following spring, plant them in the ground 30 cm away.
