Description

Oriental poppies are excellent perennial plants, combining the delicacy of their flowers, which look like Armenian paper, with the robustness of their stumps.

Border of fringed petals, vermilion, pure white at the base.

It completely disappears to go into dormancy in the middle of summer and re-emerges in autumn to bloom again as soon as temperatures become milder.

Planting and care

Although they prefer to grow in light and moist soil, they also tolerate dry and gravelly, limestone, as well as heavy and clayey, damp soil, provided it is not waterlogged in winter. Another characteristic specific to this poppy is that its foliage disappears shortly after flowering, but if care is taken to cut back the faded inflorescences early, new foliage will emerge in late summer, thus filling the gap left for the end of the season. It can be associated with Thermopsis, lupines, and carnations, along the edge of a flowerbed.
