Description: Papaver Paeoniflorum double mix. Sitting pretty on top of long sturdy hairy stems and intense blue-green foliage, these showy dazzling flowers will compliment any garden. The flowers blooms are heavy and doubled with crinkled petals. They will certainly stand out in the crowd touting 5 to 10 nodding flowers per stem in a wide color range which include: pink, purple, white, red and deep violet. The flowers last about five days in bloom...... but wait!!!! The show isn’t over. Not only are these flowers amazing when alive, but they hold their beauty in death. When the petals fade and fall off a unique oblong seed pod forms and are haled as everlasting because they keep their shape and color and are widely used for dried arrangements and floral projects. They are widely used for borders and cottage gardens, but its your garden, use your imagination! If you want to prolong blooming, deadhead before they bud, but if thats not your goal, they will self sow. The seeds are edible but don’t eat them raw to avoid stomach upset. They are used for cooking, baking, and can be stored for the following year. They have been used for medicinal purposes for the opium content, and it is illegal to grow them for that purpose. 40+ seed per pack Planting Zone: 3 – 8 Sun: full sun in cool regions, and partial shade in hot climates.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine,Florida. All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right! SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!! ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME. DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL. Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
