description for "Poppies: Papaver orientale 'Maiden's Blush'"
Satin like blooms grace this gorgeous Poppy variety. Its gentle salmon/orange colored petals are offset by a black center. This beauty will begin to show color in late Spring until early Summer. While the weather warms up, it will either go dormant or disappear. It can be mulched over to protect from Winter. Always a great plant choice for mass plantings, borders and containers. Hardy in zones 2-9. Edited by. S. Derr
