500 Pepperbox Poppy Seeds

Poppy Pepperbox (Papaver Somniferum Pepperbox)

Bring some romance and charm to your garden! This variety blooms in shades of pinks, purples, and lilacs, and some of the petals are fringed and others smooth to provide a beautiful display.

Once the flowers are spent, these Poppies are known for their nutty-flavored seeds that can be left to ripen and used in baking. Leave the pods to ripen and collect them at the end of the season for kitchen use.

Growing Poppies from seed is so rewarding. Create a beautiful display with these flower seeds!
