Additional Information

Oriental Poppy

Breathtaking clump-forming perennial features finely cut bristly frosty-green leaves and shimmering crepe-paper blossoms that give way to unique signature seedpods that are an essential component in late-season bouquets and dried arrangements. The entire plant goes summer-dormant—don’t be alarmed when the leaves turn brown in early summer and disappear almost entirely by August. Basal mats of new leaves will appear in the fall.

Oriental poppies form a taproot, so loosen soil deeply before planting so roots can reach the cool soil with ease. Requires full to part sun and neutral well-drained soil. Overwatering, particularly during dormancy, is the most common cause of failure. Winter mulch is recommended to prevent heaving.
