Fill your garden with a spectacular, season‑long display of color and texture with this Mixed Poppy Seed Blend, featuring four iconic poppy groups: Orientale poppies, Perennial Icelandic poppies, Papaver somniferum, and California poppies. This diverse mix brings together bold perennial structure, silky annual blooms, and glowing drought‑tolerant color for a garden that evolves beautifully from early spring through late summer.

🌼 What’s Inside the Blend

Orientale Poppies

Huge, dramatic perennial blooms in fiery reds, oranges, pinks, and bicolors. Their ruffled petals and dark centers make them the showstoppers of early summer.

Perennial Icelandic Poppies

Soft, glowing shades of lemon, apricot, cream, and coral. These cool‑season perennials add a delicate, luminous quality to spring gardens.

Somniferum Poppies

Tall, elegant annuals with silky petals in jewel tones, pastels, and striking bicolors. Loved for their dramatic blooms and ornamental seed pods.

California Poppies

Sun‑loving, drought‑tolerant annuals with glowing orange, yellow, and cream blooms. These cheerful flowers thrive even in poor soil and hot climates.
