Planting and care

Although they prefer to grow in light and moist soil, they also tolerate dry and gravelly, limestone, as well as heavy and clayey, wet soil, provided it is not waterlogged in winter. Another characteristic specific to this poppy is that its foliage disappears shortly after flowering, but if care is taken to cut back the faded inflorescences early, new foliage will grow in late summer, thus filling the void left for the end of the season. It can be associated with Thermopsis, lupins, carnations, at the edge of a flower bed.
