PAPAVER SOMNIFERUM RED CARNATION Papaveraceae HA 2-3ft

Long-lasting, semi-doubled heads of deepest blood red open throughout the summer. They really do look very much like enormous carnations, but without the perfume I'm afraid.

Sowing advice: Z. FOR BEST RESULTS SOW IN SPRING OUTSIDE, DIRECTLY INTO THE GROUND. ALTERNATIVELY, SOW ANYTIME IN A POT AND KEEP MOIST AND WARM. PLANT OUT IN GOOD GARDEN SOIL FOR BEST RESULTS.
