Orange Poppy
Masses of pure orange flowers are the featured attraction of this short lived perennial from the Caucasus Region. Allow the plants to mature their fruit capsules to supply future generations. Seeds dispersal is focused within a short distance of the mother plant. Plant in full sun and allow the ripe seed to fall on bare earth. Rabbits and deer dislike the milky sap.
