Papaver
Open pollinated.

Annual. Also known as Corn Poppy, was called Ghost Poppy or Fairy Poppy early in the 20th century. Elegant semi-double blooms all summer in shades of pink, rose, salmon, scarlet and white. The name Shirley refers to the town in Surry, England, where the Rev. Henry Wilkes originally raised the variety. It was relatively new in 1890 when Hallock’s Famous Long Island Seeds said it was “conceded by all to be still the finest Novelty that we can give you this spring. The flowers are like fairy work…so silky and tissue-like…Bending and trembling with life-like beauty, the surface is a perfect shimmer of light and color.” 2½' tall.
