PAPAVER ORI ALLEGRO
Grower Notes:

Papaver orientalis 'Allegro' is more commonly known as Allegro Poppy. It is a dwarf form of poppy with bold orange-red color with black centers. Flowers feel like crepe paper and are cup shaped. They appear from late spring through early summer. Foliage is grayish-green and has a height and spread close to 15-18 inches.

Allegro Poppy thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. Removal of seeds and seedlings help keep the flowers contained.
