description for "Poppies: Papaver somniferum 'Danish Flag'"
A striking poppy with scarlet fringed flowers and a white cross in its center. This gorgeous perennial shows color from late Summer to Fall. Once the petals have faded, green seed pods remain, which are superb in dried arrangements. A great plant choice for mass plantings in beds or borders and a favorite of florists. Hardy in zones 2-9.
