This beautiful lacy showpiece does not shy away from compliments. Bee's love it. Brings pollinators to the garden. Danish Flag Poppy plants are easy to grow, and they thrive in most garden settings. Many Florists use the seed pods after the plant has bloomed in dried arrangements. Late seedlings (September) will form a tap root which is fairly hardy, so while the leaf above ground will be lost over the winter, the plant will shoot from this tap root again in the spring. This plant looks best sown (or planted) in groups. The plants are known for self-sowing for additional seasons of beauty. If seeding is not desired, Poppy flower care would include deadheading spent flowers. It's best to sow directly into the ground as this variety does not transplant well. WHAT YOU WILL RECIEVE: A clear zip locked resealable bag clearly labeled with seed type of the fresh quality seed that will yield, when planted, the beautiful plant as described.
