Sowing Instructions:
Sow Poppy Papaver Paeony Double Black seeds directly outdoors in late spring, once the soil has warmed and the risk of frost has passed. Choose a sunny location with well-drained, fertile soil for best results. Sprinkle the seeds thinly on the soil surface and gently press them in, as poppies prefer light to germinate. Do not cover the seeds with soil, as they need exposure to light. Water lightly and keep the soil moist, but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs within 14-21 days. Once the seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them out, spacing them 30-45 cm apart to allow for proper growth.
This hardy annual variety grows to a height of 60-90 cm and produces large, showy double flowers in late spring to early summer. Poppy Papaver Paeony Double Black makes a statement in borders, cutting gardens, or wildflower meadows. Its bold, dark blooms provide a unique contrast in floral arrangements, and the plant is low-maintenance, thriving in poor to moderately fertile soils. Whether you're an experienced gardener or just starting out, Double Black is sure to impress with its beautiful, dramatic flowers.
