Notes

'Hungarian Blue Breadseed Poppy' (Papaver somniferum 'Hungarian Blue Breadseed Poppy') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and containers. It handles cool weather and a light frost. This plant likes full sun. It grows 36 to 48 inches tall, so it works well toward the back of a border. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers, and the plant tolerates drought once it settles in. Cut the stems for bouquets to enjoy the blooms indoors.

Pairs well with Feather reed grass, Chervil, and Evelyn rose.
