PAPAVER: Delicate blossoms of Poppies have enchanted us for generations. Large paper-thin petals form a bowl around their ornamental centers. The blossoms are a favorite for butterflies, hummingbirds and bees. Sunlight makes their translucent petals positively glow with color.
Oriental Poppy 'Allegro'. Large cup shaped scarlet red flowers on dwarf plants. Great in beds, borders or for cutting! These Poppies bloom in May and June each year on vigorous plants about 16" tall...and they are truly spectacular. Plant them in groups or in the perennial border and you will enjoy them for a lifetime. They do well in the sun or slight shade in well drained soil. Plant 15-18" apart.
