Description

This is a mix of four different poppy varieties with double petaled flowers. The mix includes four varieties: red petals with black marks, lavender petals with dark purple marks, lilac petal with purple marks and light pink/purple with deep purple/black marks.

Somniferum is the variety of poppy whose seeds are most often used in culinary activities and baking. The seed oil is also used for a variety of purposes such as making paints, varnishes and salad dressings. The seeds are produced abundantly in pods that, like those of the peony poppy, are used in dried floral arrangements. Like the peony, somniferum poppies have been a common feature of poetry and art dating well into ancient times. It is cultivated in many parts of the world as a crop and an ornamental flower. Unlike peonies, though, the flowers are not frilly. With plants stretching up to four feet, the foliage is bluish green and resembles lettuce. They will usually hybridize with other poppies if precautions are not taken to prevent cross-pollination.
