Poppy 'Afghan Mix Reselected' is a fabulous collection of traditional poppies from Afghanistan. The single flowers have fringed or rounded edges with white or dark purple centers.
Afghan poppies will delight you with a wide range of colors including pink, red, purple, white, lavender, burgundy, and salmon.
This mix was reselected by J. L. Hudson, Seedsman, from whom I got my original seeds. He selected for a wider range of colors and forms. It's now a superior, well-balanced mix.
