A 'must-have' for all poppy lovers, 'Album’ makes a charming addition to cottage garden borders with delicate, palest pink blooms with contrasting lilac blotches at their centres. This beautiful hardy annual bears open, cup-shaped flowers from June to September above blue-green foliage. As the flowers fade, they are replaced by attractive seed heads containing edible seeds, which can be used when baking breads and cakes.Direct sow Poppy seeds outdoors where they are to grow in spring or autumn. Choose a position in full sun on fertile, well-drained soil which has been raked to a fine tilth. Sow seeds thinly, just below the soil surface. Water the ground regularly, especially during dry periods. Germination usually takes 7 - 14 days. When Poppy seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them out to 30cm (12") apart.Product specifications:Position: Full SunHeight: Up to 90cm when fully establishedSpread: Up to 30cm when fully establishedSupplied as 1x packet Poppy 'Album' (approx. 300 seeds)Flowering period: June to SeptemberDelivered with growing and care instructionsImages shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
