Shirley Poppy

Papaver rhoeas

Color: Mixed Pastels

Height: 24-30 inches

These easy to grow annuals will add a splash of color wherever they are planted.  Plant in full sun.  They do best in well drained, neutral to alkaline soils.  Lime may be added to neutralize acidic soils.  Stagger your plantings in the spring to prolong bloom period.  Sow seeds directly as poppies do not transplant well.
