Papaver 'Aglaja'
What a fabulous oriental poppy this is! Its early summer flowers are like a frilly party dress, with layer upon layer of coral pink petals, looking for all as though they made from tissue paper. The petal edges of Papaver 'Aglaja'are heavily frilled, and the centre of the blooms are a delightful cherry pink. From the moment the softly hair-covered leaves unfurl in spring, until they fade away in autumn, they are a lovely bright, fresh green!
Papaver orientale 'Aglaja' is a short and stocky poppy, growing in its first year to just 50cm. Then, as the plant matures, each summer it will grow closer to 80cm. Sometimes, on a good and fertile soil, that has not been allowed to dry out in summer, flowers appear again in September-October.
This bold, showy, and very hardy perennial will make a colourful splash in any bed or border. Although it will tolerate a degree of shade during the day, a spot in full sun is best. Bees and other pollinating insects will love it, too. This plant has received the Award of Garden Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS).
