about this variety

dramatic flowers with silky purple petals and dark centers that create stunning focal points in the garden. these eye-catching poppies add a touch of elegance and mystery to any planting.

easy-to-grow annuals that self-seed readily, returning year after year. the delicate, papery blooms dance in the breeze and attract pollinators. excellent for cottage gardens, wildflower meadows, and cutting.

drought-tolerant once established and thrive in poor soil. the unique purple color is rare among poppies, making these a special addition to any garden.
growing guide

sowing season: march–may
sun: full sun
spacing: 25–30 cm
sowing depth: surface sow or very lightly covered
germination: 10–14 days
soil: well-drained soil
lifecycle: annual

sow seeds directly into prepared garden beds as poppies dislike transplanting. scatter seeds thinly across the soil surface and gently press them into the soil without covering deeply. keep soil lightly moist until seedlings establish. thin young plants to allow adequate spacing which helps prevent overcrowding and encourages stronger flowering. poppies prefer relatively poor soil and excessive fertiliser may reduce flowering. once plants begin blooming they require little care beyond occasional watering during prolonged dry periods. allow some flowers to set seed if you wish plants to self-sow for the following season.
