"Received this poppy a few years ago. It came in great shape. The first couple of years it just grew foliage. This year I had numerous blooms, but unfortunately the blooms were orange not red. I was a little disappointed considering I had to wait a few years for it to bloom."
"Love how stunning these are."
"Plants came in excellent condition. Planted them right away and they are beautiful."
"Another great purchase! Bloomed the first season."
"It continues to give my wildflower garden the true red it needed. Perfect!"
"I've been trying to get some poppies going for two years and last year I ordered these plants from High Country. The first ones planted died back and never came up but they replaced them with new plants. The replacements have now bloomed and are very huge vibrant red flowers. They look like they will produce a lot of seed pods and spread out. I kept a wire fence around them to keep animals off of them. Poppies are tricky to grow but these are fantastic."
"Surprised it made it thru the harsh winter and a long one at that. It has snowed in May! Doing great in both locations I planted them. Soil is clay, but amended with potting soil and plant is doing well and has big blooms getting ready to open. How does my garden grow?. . . with purrrrfect plants from High Country Gardens. Thank you very much. So easy even a novice can grow them!"
"When guests to my yard see the poppies, they stop in their tracks and ask ""what is that plant""? They are dramatic color, form and beauty."
"I ordered two plants last summer, and they arrived in good order for autumn planting. Both plants are doing quite well now, and both have numerous flower buds. One bud has flowered already and the color is a stunningly gorgeous red with black undertones."
