This is one of the first poppies to bloom in early spring, and what a cheerful sight! The double flowers are a soft shade of orange that doesn't clash with other colors.
Papaver atlanticum blooms the first year from seed. It looks charming in the wildflower garden or border. Try it with other drought-tolerant plants like
blue flax or penstemon. Also known as Double Atlas Poppy or Moroccan poppy. Hardy in zones 4-9.
