Oriental Mix Poppy
The large flowers appear in colors of orange, pink, red, salmon, and white.
The Poppy Oriental, Oriental Blend, 'Papaver orientale', will be the most dramatic flower in your garden when its large 4 to 8 inch crepe paper-like flowers appear.
This is a very hardy perennial in cooler climates and it is short lived in warmer climates, but no less dramatic.
The foliage completely dies back after bloom and reappears in the fall.
This Poppy looks great mixed in with summer and fall blooming annuals and perennials.
