Red Corn Poppy
Papaver rhoeas
A timeless symbol of Remembrance Day, the red corn poppy brings vivid color and delicate beauty to the garden. Bright scarlet red blooms with silky petals sway atop slender stems, creating a light, airy display. These poppies bloom freely in late spring to early summer and look especially striking when planted in drifts or scattered through borders.
Easy to grow and low maintenance, red corn poppies thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. They are an annual plant but once established, they readily self-seed, returning year after year with little effort. Perfect for cottage gardens, wildflower plantings, and naturalized areas.
