Garden Poppy (Papaver somniferum "Danish Flag") 0,25g, ~1000 seeds

875 Ft

A close relative of our favourite poppy is the garden poppy(Papaver somniferum), of which this red-and-white variety, the 'Danish Flag', is a breeding variety named after the Danish flag for its colours. After opening, it forms large round poppy tubers, similar to the common poppy, which are excellent in dry flower bouquets. It's a gorgeous flower, easy to grow and sure to wow the neighbours 🙂 The garden poppy is not originally native to Hungary, but only to the Mediterranean, but it has been grown in Hungary for a very long time, as it is an important ingredient in many of our Hungarian dishes. But not only us, pollinators love it too 🙂

Sow the seeds in spring or autumn in prepared soil or pots. Do not cover the seeds with soil, they will germinate in the light. Sow them in their permanent place. Water them. Keep the soil moist for the first few weeks. Flower as an annual through spring sowing 8-10 weeks after sowing, flowering as a seedling in autumn sowing and flowering the following year. Delight in the spectacle!

TIP: sown before/when the spring bulbs flower, the annuals will flower just as the spring bulbs are disappearing and will cover the drying foliage of the bulbs.
