Oriental Poppy 'Fruit Punch'
Papaver 'Fruit Punch' is a mixed seed strain of Oriental poppy with 5" ruffled flowers with a dark center. Each plant will be a single color which can range from light to bright orange, varying shade of pink, purple, or rarely red. Most of the plants we've seen flower over the last few years have been pastel colors in pink or orange which are actually quite nice as they are not the normal colors you would see in poppies.
Since each plant is just one color we recommend planting a few together for a nice arrangement.
