Description

Common poppy Bridal Silk, also known as Papaver rhoeas, is a variety whose immaculate flowers are reminiscent of white field poppies!

This pretty variety is prized, above all, for its immaculate flowers with their silky petals of a beautiful shade of pure white. Carried on 50 cm tall hairy stems, the flowers bloom from early June to late July. The light green foliage arranged in a rosette, is abundant.

This annual poppy is very attractive to bees and other useful insects. It is a great border plant for sunny white gardens and can also be used as a cut flower.
