"mission Bells" California Poppy Seeds

Annual. (Perennial in USDA zones 7-11, though foliage often over winters in other areas). Blooms in the cool weather of spring and fall. 6-12" tall. Full sun. A stunning mix of single and double white, yellow, orange, deep orange, scarlet-red and purple poppies. These silky saucer-shaped flowers look best when planted in mass groupings and wildflower areas. Flowers are open in their full glory in the sun, but will close during cloudy days or if placed in the shade. Drought-tolerant. Does well in hot, dry areas once established. Pinching off spent flowers prolongs bloom period. Can be used as a cut flower if cut in the bud stage. Reseeds easily. Native America wildflower.
