Poppy, Black Peony

Rating:
87% of 100

Annual. A deeply dramatic poppy, with intricately ruffled blooms in shades of obsidian to dark burgundy. The flowers are fully double and so large, from 3-5" across! This show-stopping variety stuns in the landscape or in arrangements. Even the seedpods wonderful additions to dried flower designs. Plants stand 3-4' tall and will readily self sow in the garden.
