About Papaver orientale Roots - Forncett Summer

Papaver orientale

Seed Type Root

This remarkable poppy variety traces its origins back to Forncett St. Mary in Norfolk, England where its petals feature intricate yet bold fringing, while maintaining an overall delicate appearance. A delightful touch of intrigue is found at the base of each petal, where small black markings captivate the eye. Consider planting Forncett Summer alongside May Night Salvia or Allium Globemaster for a compelling contrast. The combination of the bright salmon pink poppy with the deep hues of purple from these companion plants will result in a visually stunning display that is sure to capture attention and leave a lasting impression.
