Poppy 'Double Purple' (Papaver somniferum)
650 seeds $3.25
Poppy 'Double Purple' is a lovely variety with semi-double to fully double, soft purple flowers. It looks somewhat like our introduction, Lavender Dress , but we don't think it's as nice - probably because it is commercially produced without the quality selection that we perform. Ours has better color and form because we pull up any plants that are not up to our standards.
Papaver somniferum 'Double Purple' blooms in mid to late June from an early spring sowing.
