This is quite simply, the best possible poppy you can grow
'Champagne Bubbles' way out-stripped all others in our Perch Hill trial. It comes in a beautiful mix of white, pink, yellow and various tones of orange. Flowering on and off for over six months, with great chiffon cup flowers which last well once cut. I absolutely love it. These can be tricky to get to planting-out stage, so let us do that for you.
On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
