Yellow horned poppy

  • Product number: 588970
  • Origin: Europe
  • Latin: Glaucium flavum

Its foliage alone is an adornment: sea(blue)green, frosted, and elegantly incised. The cheerful, glossy, ochre-yellow poppy flowers, after fertilization, transform into horn-shaped, curved seed pods (hence the name...). Height 30 cm, flowering period June-August. These perennial plants love sun, sand, and not too much moisture. In our country, it is found in the wild (very rarely) in the dunes. For ornamental horticulture, the horn poppy can, by the way, acclimatize very well in freshwater areas.
