Bread Seed Poppy Pink – Irish Seed

Opium poppies (Papaver somniferum) are an ancient plant grown since Neolithic times. Usable for flower arranging or extracting the seeds for adding to baked goods. Due to their taproots, poppies can be difficult to transplant. I find it easier to broadcast seed in some prepared soil around April. A pink blossomed variety which forms heads of various sizes.
