Papaver, Oriental Poppy - Effendi - Fiery colour, perfect for naturalistic borders - Bare root - 1 pc

Papaver 'Effendi' captivates with orange-salmon flowers that bring a warm, vivid splash of colour to borders. These large, bowl-shaped blooms with lightly crinkled petals rise above a clump of deeply cut, rough-haired leaves. Their darker, contrasting centres beautifully enhance the colouring, making the plant easy to pick out among other perennial species. This variety is particularly well suited to garden schemes with a loose, natural character.

Planting time

Plant the bare roots from March to April.

Planting depth

The recommended planting depth is 5-7 cm.

Spacing

Plant 40-50 cm apart.

Height

This variety reaches 60-80 cm in height.

Flowering period

Flowers from May to July.

Overwintering

This plant is frost hardy and overwinters well.

Use

Papaver 'Effendi' is suitable for planting in perennial borders as well as in naturalistic and cottage gardens. The large flowers create a distinct accent among other plants, especially when paired with ornamental grasses or perennials in cooler colours. After flowering, the above-ground parts gradually die back, so it is worth planting it alongside species that will later fill the space in the border.
