Product information
Poppy Mother of Pearl is a graceful hardy annual that produces a delightful mix of soft pastel-hued blooms. This classic variety is a cottage garden favourite, admired for its delicate charm and ability to create a natural, romantic effect in garden beds, borders, and wildflower-style planting schemes. Loved by pollinators, these poppies not only enrich your garden with colour but also provide a valuable food source for bees. Easy to grow and low-maintenance, they are perfect for gardeners who wish to achieve a soft and timeless summer display. How to Grow: – Sow seeds directly into the soil where they are to flower, from early spring to late spring, or in the autumn. – Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. – Poppy seeds need light to germinate, so do not cover them too deeply, just a light sprinkling of soil or vermiculite. – Water gently after sowing and keep the soil moist until germination. – Thin seedlings to 15-20cm apart once they are large enough to handle. – These are hardy annuals and will typically flower from early summer onwards, depending on sowing time.
