TheBrilliant Scarlet Oriental Poppyis perhaps the most spectacular flower in the early summer garden. Known for its massive, paper-like blooms in a vibrant, fiery red, these flowers create a dramatic contrast against their rich green, deeply lobed foliage. Reaching a mature height of75 cm, these poppies provide a bold splash of colour that signals the start of the summer season.
This is anOpen Pollinated Perennialthat is exceptionally hardy (down to Zone 3), making it a reliable and long-lived addition to Canadian landscapes.
A unique characteristic of the Oriental Poppy is that the plants die back and go into a period ofdormancy during the heat of the summer. Tomaximizeyour gardens beauty, we suggest interplanting poppies with late-flowering perennials such as Coneflowers, Daylilies, or Lilies. These companions will grow in to fill the space as the poppies retire for the season.
