P. paeoniflorium
This seed packet consists of approximately 50 seeds.
Poppies do not like their roots disturbed and therefore it is best to direct sow straight into your garden. They are a hardy annual, meaning they can handle frosty areas. Sow 50cm apart in full sun to part shade in autumn for a stunning spring show. Peony poppies look fantastic planted en masse with stunning large ruffled flower heads. They come in a range of colours from white, red, purple, pink and black.
Harvest the poppy seedpod once the seedpod has turned a light brown colour. Hang seedpod heads upside down in a cool, dry area, with minimal to zero sunlight. I try to collect my seeds before turning them upside down. Continue to hang until they completely dry. Please note that seedpods have thousands of seeds inside that can make a great mess if they are knocked around once dry!
N.B. Regrettably, we cannot send seeds to Western Australia and Tasmania due to quarantine restrictions.
