Papaver rhoeas 'Bridal Silk'

  • Product number: 544150
  • Origin: Europe
  • Latin: Papaver rhoeas

Very special and rarely beautiful: poppies made of bridal silk, in bright white with cream-yellow stamens and anthers. Beautiful and also easy to grow. Picking them in bud with just a hint of color visible ensures a few days of vase enjoyment.

Poppies are a gem in the garden. They are also fantastic as cut flowers; cut them in bud when the color is just visible. You will see them fully unfold…
