Poppy Black Swan - West Coast Seeds
Papaver somniferum
- 10cm (4") wide flowers
- Deer resistant
- Annual
The flowers of Black Swan poppy are almost peony-like, with finely cut, deeply frilled, dark red petals, and fully double form. The strong, upright stems grow as tall as 120cm (48"), but the flowers themselves are just incredible. They are followed by large, curious seed pods full of edible poppy seeds for baking. The striking flowers are magnets for bees, but deer tend to give them a complete pass. Direct sow, and expect some self sowing to occur.
Annual.
0.25g (Approx. 750 seeds)
