Californian Poppy - Jelly Beans

Introducing ‘Jelly Beans’

With a vibrant colour range reminiscent of jelly beans, the gorgeous, fully-double blooms of this Californian Poppy mix glisten as they sit above their compact and power-green feathery foliage in an array of pink, orange and apple-blossom shades. So easy-to-grow, just throw and sow! Ideal for creating wonderful splashes of summer colour in sunny borders or containers. Grows to a height of between 20-25cm (8-10in).

Sowing Californian Poppies from seed

Sow outdoors where they are to flower. Prepare the ground well and rake to a fine tilth before sowing. Sow 12mm (½in) deep in rows 15cm (6in) apart.

For Spring/Summer Flowering Pot Plants: Sow in a cool greenhouse or conservatory in late summer/early autumn. Grow on cool in full light in a cool glasshouse or cold frame and water sparingly.

You can buy Californian Poppy ‘Jelly Beans’ Mixed from Thompson & Morgan.
