Poppy

Oriental poppy Coral Reef will attract attention at the beginning of summer with its sixty to eighty-centimeter tall stems, on which huge bowl-shaped flowers open in a salmon-pink shade with black spots near the center. Its home is the rocky slopes and dry meadows of the Caucasus, Turkey, and Iran, thanks to which it is extremely resilient. It can handle harsh frosts down to minus forty degrees, and growing it is easily manageable even for a beginner. It thrives best in full sun in well-drained loamy soil. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which just needs to be transplanted into the bed with a spacing of fifty centimeters, where it will soon offer a rich feast for bees and bumblebees. The plant does not suffer from diseases; the only danger to it is field voles. After flowering, the strikingly fuzzy leaves die back into the ground and the poppy rests. A portion of the leaves will reappear at the end of summer. Therefore, perennials that sprout a bit later and reliably cover the summer pause fit perfectly in its vicinity. The poppy can be excellently used in fresh bouquets. We harvest the buds the moment they fully color and crack. We then sear the end of the stem with a flame for twenty seconds and immediately put it in cold water. This way, they will last you four days in a vase.

Requires a sunny location, but tolerates slight partial shade. Once established, it handles drought well. Ordinary, well-drained garden soil is ideal. Iceland poppy flowers are single, slightly larger than annual common poppies, and also last longer in a vase. They appear throughout spring, sometimes even into September. The leaves are a fresh green colour and arranged in a basal rosette. The whole plant exudes a milky sap. Like all Poppies, harvest for bouquets as soon as the buds show colour and "crack". Additionally, sear the stem ends briefly (for about 20 seconds) with a flame and immediately place in cold water. They will then last 4 days in a vase.
