Poppy, White cloud (Ballenberg Edition)
The silky-soft, snow-white petals sway in the breeze like clouds hovering overhead. This poppy comes from Antalya in Turkey; a poppy capsule was given to us by a kind farmer. From this capsule, we build our seedstock. It makes excellent bee pasture. Height ranges from 100–120 cm.
