Oriental Poppy - Harvest Moon - Large Pack! - 10 pcs offers a striking addition to any garden with its tall, perennial stature, reaching heights of 80-100 cm. This variety is particularly noted for its vibrant, juicy orange blooms that add a unique decorative flair to your outdoor space.

As early as spring, the Harvest Moon poppy announces its presence with rosettes of feathery leaves, covered in thick, white hairs. Come May, the plant shoots up straight, rigid stems that culminate in large, spherical buds. These soon unfurl into delicate follicles with subtly shiny petals, centred around a star-shaped pistil and surrounded by hundreds of fluffy stamens.

This variety is exceptionally well-suited for creating larger clusters in flower beds, borders, or along lawn edges. While versatile enough to complement various garden styles, the Harvest Moon poppy shines particularly in rural, naturalistic, oriental, and modern settings.

These poppies are easy to cultivate, thriving in permeable, dry soil and sunny locations. The planting area should be well-aerated, and if needed, amended with coarse sand to prevent water stagnation, which is detrimental to the plant. Minimal maintenance is required; a simple post-flowering prune and moderate fertilisation will suffice. As the plant goes dormant post-flowering, it pairs well with late-summer bloomers that can fill the resulting gap.

This Large Pack includes 10 Harvest Moon poppy seedlings, each accompanied by a label providing essential cultivation information. This makes it an ideal choice for gardeners of all experience levels looking to add a touch of drama to their gardens.
