Description
30" tall x 36+" wide (seed/root cutting propagated). This is an incredible heirloom hybrid poppy. Spreading vigorously by its roots to form large colonies, its late spring-early summer display of huge double orange flowers is spectacular. Give this beauty plenty of room to spread; it's not a perennial for small spaces. The plants go dormant in summer so plant it behind other tall, vigorous summer blooming perennials to hide their unsightly foliage as they go to sleep.
