Growing to 40-60cm (15-25") tall, these delicately silky, white poppies with yellow anthers are stunning as they sway in the breeze, especially when grown in free-flowing drifts. The large saucer-shaped flowers bloom in early summer, attracting birds and pollinators. These poppies are deer resistant. Fleuroselect Novelty 2008.

Hardy Annual.

Timing: Start perennial poppies outdoors in early spring, when some chance of frost is still a possibility. Start annual varieties outdoors at the same time in Zones 3-7. In Zones 8-10, the best bet is to direct sow in the fall.

Poppies are famously difficult to transplant, so starting them indoors is not recommended. If absolutely necessary, use peat or coir pots, and maintain a soil temperature of 12°C (55°F). Seeds will sprout in 20-30 days.

Starting: Sow on the surface of the soil, or barely cover seeds. Thin to a minimum of 15cm (6″) apart.
