About this item:
The Oriental Poppy Beauty of Livermere is renowned for its vibrant crimson scarlet blooms that can stretch up to 6 inches in diameter. Ideally planted outdoors after the frost or indoors before the last frost, these poppies reach a height between 36 to 48 inches and should be spaced about 12 to 18 inches apart. They thrive in hardiness zones 3 to 8 and prefer a location that receives full sun to partial shade with average soil and water conditions. This heirloom variety is not only a magnet for bees, butterflies, and birds, but also serves as an excellent choice for cut flowers. Its unique looking seed pods are sought after for dried arrangements or craft projects. Each packet contains 100 seeds.
