Poppy Californian Golden West

Vibrant, cheerful, and needs virtually no care....what a perfect addition to the cottage garden!

These bright, happy little flowers bring a beautiful, naturalistic feel to the garden from June to September. They self-seed freely and will pop up again year after year. Californian Poppy performs well in most environments and even seems to prefer poor, arid conditions.
