Quick Overview

Papaver nudicaule 'Party Fun'. Poppy

Product Description

It would be hard to imagine a flower more perfect than Papaver nudicaule 'Party Fun' (syn. 'Meadow Pastels’). A scented poppy - handfuls of crumpled silk - with a spicy, delicious scent.

Papaver nudicaule 'Party Fun' also makes one of the loveliest cut flowers, unravelling from tight bud and lasting surprisingly well in a vase. I love it.
