Re: Poppies (p. somniferum?)


An additional comment on Peony flowered P., I have grown these for several
years and they have self-seeded all over the garden. But, they have reverted
to single blooms. They have stayed the same colour, some still with shaggy
petals, but a single layer. They only stayed
"peony" shaped for 1 year after the initial planting.
