The Seed Exchange

Looking for a poppy trader...help...

15 years ago

Someone sent me seeds for a beautiful maroon poppy and I was just wondering the name of it. It's big as a carnation and fluffy like one. It's wonderful and hopefully I'll have many seeds to share this winter. Have a few plants with about 8 more buds on each plant.

If anyone knows what I have please let me know. I can send a picture if it will help you identify it. Any help would be very much appreciated. Many thanks and Happy gardening. Bev.

Does it maybe look like Black Peony Poppy

Or

'Black Cloud' Peony Poppy

They both look pretty similar to me. I wonder if there might be others as well? They sure are pretty.
