Mary's Ukrainian Poppy

Another wonderful heirloom from my great grandparents. Mary Stefanec was my great grandmother so I named these poppies after her. These poppy’s have been growing on our farm for generations and self seed every year. A delightful mix of different colored single poppies mostly in the purple to red color ranges; all with a darker blotch in the center. Some even have fringed petals. The leaves and stems are glaucous and a bluish green in color. The seed heads are usually quite large and the seed is dark gray to black. Although I never have used the seeds in pastries or baking, I would imagine that my great grandmother once did. Annual.

50 seeds per packet.
