California Poppy (Eschscholzia Californica Copper Swirl) - California Poppy 'Copper Swirl' are so easy to grow from seed, simply sow directly into borders for a dazzling display of fruity colors on these delightful double and semi-double crinkled flowers growing approximately 10 inches tall. Thompson & Morgan are proud to have bred this fresh range of Californian Poppies which are drought tolerant and require no special treatment! Ideal for beds, borders, rockeries or dry sunny banks.
These dainty hardy annuals are tougher than they appear and positively thrive on poor, dry soils. California poppies are easy to grow in beds and borders, or let them self seed throughout gravel gardens to form natural drifts. A plant that enjoys a sunny site with poor, well-drained soil. Honey bees, bumblebees & sweat bees all seek its nectar while some local butterflies will also seek out this nutrition. This poppy is ideal for adding color to any sunny location, it can establish in a problem area & it seems to happily harmonize with annuals & perennials alike. Ideal for a container too! Plant in any fast-draining soil in full sun and as with most poppies it is considererd deer resistant.
