One of the most cherished flowers in the whole world with blossoms that became a symbol for the fallen soldiers after WWI. This Flanders-type poppy is easy to grow and produces an abundance of vibrant 3-4" red blooms.
Direct sow when soil is warm enough to cultivate. Gently press seeds into soil; light is required for germination. Thin after seedlings emerge. Regular watering and deadheading encourages longer growing season.
