× Papaver lecoqii - Yellow-juiced Poppy

Description

Yellow-juiced Poppy is visually very similar to Long-headed Poppy (Paper dubium) with its tall hairy stem, red-pink flowers and oblong seed capsules although it has yellow latex in comparison to white.

Habitat Information

Yellow-juiced Poppy is an annual of arable fields, waste ground and disturbed soil on verges and in gardens. It is less common than other poppy species.

Growing Information

Can be sown at any time of the year. Seed can live for a very long time in the soil, waiting for conditions to be right before germinating (usually in the Autumn with a few in the spring). As with all cornfield annuals it requires ground subject to yearly disturbance if it is to persist.
