Description
Californian Poppy ‘Purple Gleam’ – Seeds
The classic Californian poppy but in a special shade of lilac-purple with paler centres. Waving gently in the breeze, the silky flowers of Californian Poppy ‘Purple Gleam’ shimmer beautifully in the sunshine above low mounds of finely divided foliage. So easy to grow – just scatter seeds onto finely raked soil – the poorer the better. Sow them in big drifts for an informal ‘wildflower’ effect or scatter them along the front of pastel-themed borders. Seeds sown in the autumn will be the earliest to flower, filling the gap between early spring bulbs and the start of the main summer display. Leave them to self-seed through gravel gardens, paving cracks and the driest, most challenging parts of the garden. Height: 23cm (9). Spread: 25cm (10).
