A superb 'opium poppy' that gives a great show of tallish stately blooms right through the summer months. They're a handsome addition to any cottage garden border, providing contrast to more pastel shades and will be regularly visited by bees and butterflies. These poppies self seed freely and will persist in the border for years without becoming a nuisance. Flowers last for a day or so but the attractive seed pods that follow are long lasting and can be dried for decoration.
