Wonderful, 3", paper, salmon-colored flowers bloom in spring and summer atop the basal foliage of this traditional garden gem. By summertime, after flowering has finished, poppies go dormant until fall when they send up a new round of foliage. Plant in full sun in a well-drained area with rich, well-worked soil.
