Papaver oreintale
Pizzicato poppies are a delightful mix of semi-dwarf, Oriental poppies that burst into bloom with bold, crinkled petals.
Standing about 50cm (19") tall, these compact beauties come in a range of vibrant colours—red, scarlet, orange, salmon, mauve, rose, pink, and white.
Their striking, papery blooms make them a showstopper in flower beds and borders, drawing admiration from bees and butterflies alike.
Perfect for sunny spots, Pizzicato poppies thrive in well-drained soil and are wonderfully low-maintenance. Plant them in spring or fall, and enjoy their cheerful flowers as a stunning focal point next growing season!
Sowing: start outdoors in early spring, when some chance of frost is still a possibility and gives the seeds a "chill", scattering seeds and keeping them moist.
