Pot Marigold Ivory Princess

We've been searching for a marigold suitable for bouquets for a long time. And finally, here it is. The Imperiale series of marigolds is specially bred for cutting; it's tall, has long stems, and large, full flowers at the end. 'Imperiale Cream' is 60 cm tall, with a creamy color.

At the turn of spring and summer, large, full blooms are scarce. The last ranunculus have faded, and there's plenty of time before the first dahlias bloom. On our farm, it was always a struggle at that time to find beautiful, full, large flowers for bouquets. But we succeeded! We filled the void with asters and peony-flowered poppies. These poppies reliably replace peonies, ranunculus, and dahlias. Just keep in mind that they don't bloom for long and need a bit of care to last in a bouquet. We harvest buds just as they are about to open, sear the stem ends in water for a few seconds, and let them fully open in the vase. Peony-flowered poppy Salmon is a warm pink color.
