Poppy, Swiss flag (annual)
Papaver sp.
This flower is very original with a Swiss cross decoration. It is also slightly fringed and sometimes with violet variations. From the graceful bloom to the large seed capsule, all parts are great for flower arrangements. The brownish seed falls easily from the capsule and is a great addition for baked goods with poppy seeds as an ingredient. Blooming occurs from the middle of June to August. It makes a great bee flower. Height reaches 80 cm.
Growing instructions
Sow from March to April by broadcasting directly into the field. Attention: Slug damage can occur in the juvenile stage.
