'MRS. PERRY' Oriental Poppy (Papaver orientale x 'mrs. perry')

'Mrs. Perry' is a very special poppy variety with the classic papier-mâché texture and rich salmon-pink color. The blooms feature deep-purple "thumbprints" at each petal's base and lavish ruffles that speak volumes about the elegance of this Oriental poppy. Light-green, serrated foliage acts as the perfect backdrop for the large, 4"-6" flowers that emerge in late-spring and last until mid-summer. Butterflies searching for nectar will find 'Mrs. Perry' to be a treat. Perfect for borders or cutting gardens, the plants are easy to grow and drought tolerant, once established.
