SHIRLEY POPPIES
Papaver rhoeas
Our garden wouldn't be complete with out Shirley poppies. For us they are the true
"harbingers of spring." They bloom at a time when their bright and cheery faces are most
appreciated--the days are still cool and most other plants are weeks away from flowering.
If sown successively the bloom will be extended through the summer. Flowers are single or
double and are good cut flowers if the fresh cut is seared with a match.
Naturalizes readily and is very easy to grow. Grows to 2-3 feet tall.
