California Poppy 'Thai Silk Pink Champagne'

$6.00
Sold Out

(Eschscholzia californica) 4 inch pot

A beautiful spin on the California Native, 'Pink Champagne' unfurls to reveal ruffly petals in shades of vintage linen to soft peach. The lovely grey-green ferny foliage is the perfect complement to these lustrous flowers. California poppies are easy to grow and attractive to pollinators.

Typically viewed as an annual, we like to cut the entire plant back (to the ground) in the summer to give the leaves a break from the heat. She will push through the ground in the fall bigger and better than ever, for a spectacular spring show. Deadhead for repeat blooms!

Now that we are looking at nothing but soil, some straggly bits of irrigation and the longest to-do list ever, we like to head back to the archives.  Our mid-summer garden enjoying some heavy moisture in the air.

Dahlia 'Zundert Mystery Fox' an outstanding performer. A juicy raspberry color and a little bit smaller in size than 'Brown Sugar'  We loved growing this one.

Here is Celosia 'Bar Bossa Champagne' looking absolutely divine. We don't pinch our first flush, letting the crested fans get as big and wavy as possible. Then we cut the side shoots all summer long.
