A gorgeous lilac selection, with large, 7-10cm (3-4in), fully double flower heads, standing proudly above glaucous foliage, followed by large, attractive seed heads. Best sown in large drifts, as an easy to grow annual border filler, adding height and interest.
Culinary note: All poppies are poisonous. However the seeds produced from Papaver somniferum can be eaten and are used for adding extra flavour, crunch and bite to breads and cakes. The seeds of other poppy species are not edible. For more details about edible flowers click here.
