Type: Annual

Genus: Papaver commutatum

Sow Seeds: Finely rake a patch of warm, moist, soil (they do not mind poor soil) and scatter the seeds over in April-May or September-October, then cover the seeds lightly. If using as a cut flower, sear the end of the stems in boiling water for 20 seconds before placing them in a vase of water to prolong their vase life.

Plant Out: Direct sown in April-May or September-October

Flowers: June-October

Height & Spread: 30cm high x 15cm spread
