Papaver (Oriental Group) 'Royal Wedding'
oriental poppy
Exquisite white flowers, each with a black centre, top downy, upright stems in early summer. This striking oriental poppy will flourish in any sunny, well drained border, however it looks particularly good in a contemporary setting where the colour range has been restricted to whites and silvers. The dried seed-heads are useful for flower arrangements.
