Poppy 'Phoebe's Pink Peony'

'Phoebe's Pink Peony' poppy has fully double blooms in a pleasing shade of medium rose-pink. Each long-blooming flower lasts for at least 2 days. We have a limited supply, so the packets have fewer seeds than usual.

This beautiful poppy was found growing at a house in northern Idaho where my son's family lived for a brief time. I named it after my daughter-in-law Phoebe, who is the most patient wife and mother I've ever known. My son nicknamed the poppy "PPPP," and he says they have a lot of that going on at their house since they have been potty training their two-year-old.

Poppy 'Phoebe's Pink Peony' is shown with Agastache 'Golden Jubilee'.

Sowing Poppy Seeds
