Iceland Poppy Flower Seeds - Botanical Name: Papaver nudicaule

500 Seeds

Our Poppy Iceland Mixed Colours seeds cultivate into a stunning tapestry of orange, yellow, red, pink, and white single-petaled flowers on annual plants that reach up to 40cm in height. The plants display fine grey/green fern-like foliage, which offers a captivating contrast to the blooms. These lightly scented flowers are known to close during dull weather, but their vibrant colors shine brilliantly in more favourable conditions, transforming any space. Well-adapted to poor soil conditions and drought, these resilient flowers are ideal for beds, borders, rock gardens, and cottage gardens, while also serving as a striking option for cut flower arrangements. They thrive in cold alpine climates, earning the alternate name 'Arctic Poppy', and are excellent attractors of bees and butterflies.
